Alain Berset, Secretary General of the Council of Europe: "To me, protecting democracy means being able to look my children in the eye - and all of you - and say: I did not stay silent". Alain Berset urges Europe to unite against disinformation and foreign influence. A new democratic pact is on the horizon: “The challenge today isn’t getting information - it’s knowing what to believe.”  “More than 40% of young people between 18 and 40 get their news primarily from social media and almost 8o % encounter disinformation from social media. So many young poeple no longer believe in democracy. This keep it me at night. We must respond.   The future of democracy isn’t written yet. It starts here. It starts with us. We need a new democratic pact with tools and visions.  What does protecting democracy mean to you?
