The Conference theme this year is: "Fake news and digital disinformation — the challenges for parliamentarians and democracy".

This is a topic that is likely to stimulate plenty of lively discussion. As part of the conference, various workshops have been organised and the Hon Samantha Sacramento will be chair one of them namely, Fake news and No Platforming.

The Conference will take the form of a series of plenary sessions addressed by invited speakers on selected relevant topics followed by workshops in which delegates are invited to contribute and discuss.
