Dr. Rumena Filipova took part in the international conference Countering Foreign Interference: CFI Dialogues 2023, which was organized by the European Union Institute for Strategic Studies and the European University Institute. The event took place on June 20-21, 2023, in Florence.
The discussions centered on EU’s as well as its international partners’ approaches and tools for countering foreign interference. Specialized sessions focused on 1) measuring resilience to foreign information manipulation and interference (fimi); 2) monitoring the information space based on a novel threat assessment framework; 3) countering fimi in CSDP missions; 4) establishing cognitive security to counter foreign interference.
