Trans-national Right-Wing Extremism and Digital Disinformation

February 24, 2022

The CHBE would like to thank our partners, panellists, and attendees for their participation in our webinar on Trans-national Right-Wing Extremism and Digital Disinformation. We invite you all to view the event in in it's entirety below.

The Trans-national Right-Wing Extremism and Digital Disinformation Webinar series was co-organized by the Intersectionality Research Hub (Concordia University), the Centre on Hate, Bias and Extremism (Ontario Tech University), and the Institute of Islamic Studies (University of Toronto) and supported by Infoscape Lab (Ryerson University), The Canadian Disinformation Project (Simon Fraser University) and Algorithmic Media Observatory (Concordia University).

The webinar series brought together scholars from across Canada to share their research on how right-wing extremists based in Canada and around the world use and exploit the affordances of social media platforms to advance their worldview.
