Call for the 2nd OCDS International Winter School on Disinformation

The Odesa Centre for Disinformation Studies (OCDS) is pleased to announce the 2nd OCDS International Winter School devoted to the challenges of disinformation in contemporary world politics.

The Winter School will be held online from 27 to 29 January 2026, and all sessions will be conducted in English.

This year’s programme focuses on analysing how disinformation strategies influence global political and communication processes. Participants will examine the evolution of Russian propaganda across different regions, evaluate the impact of misleading narratives on international security, and explore global experiences in combating disinformation and propaganda.

The School aims to broaden the understanding of analytical and research methods used to study disinformation, while also encouraging young researchers to engage in expert-level discussions about information manipulation, propaganda tools, and their significance in foreign policy.

The event is intended for experts as well as Master’s and PhD students working in international relations, political science, security studies, media research, and related fields.
