As we return to our daily work across Europe, we carry with us the insights we gained from last week's @DisinfoEU conference in Riga. We reflect on the deep sense of responsibility and humility that emerged from the discussions we shared.

Here are our top takeaways from #Disinfo2024, inspired by the collective intelligence of our remarkable community.
