Description
The Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT) is a vital tool in the global non-proliferation and nuclear disarmament agenda, and in this regard the promotion of the CTBT is imperative. It is not only essential for the CTBT itself and nuclear disarmament issues, promoting the CTBT also contributes to the overall advancement of peace and security. But with the media landscape and the public information sphere constantly changing - not least the digital sphere and social media - it is increasingly challenging to reach different target groups and, more importantly, to have an impact with communications efforts promoting the CTBT. Add to that structural changes such as Meta's recent announced changes to its content moderation policies, fact-checking and countering mis- and disinformation will be even more challenging. How can we better promote the CTBT and its entry into force and how can we achieve actual impact among stakeholders in this rapidly changing media landscape? What are the challenges using digital communications tools and how can we contribute to countering mis- and disinformation? And how can we increase collaboration among international organizations on outreach efforts advancing the non-proliferation and disarmament agenda?
