Horizontal versus Vertical Power and the Fight Against Russian Disinformation - with Olga Tokariuk

Propaganda and Information warfare have been at the forefront of Russia’s efforts to control, dominate and coerce the people of Ukraine. Disinformation is as much part their offensive arsenal as missiles and artillery. But Ukraine has been fighting this information assault since 2014, and so has become an expert in developing techniques to counter Russian propaganda narratives and methods. A whole community of Digital and news media innovators are fighting back, and Open-Source Intelligence has evolved rapidly in response to the threat from Russian aggression.

Olga Tokariuk is an independent journalist and non-resident fellow at CEPA (Center for European Policy Analysis) based in Ukraine. Her professional interests include international relations and disinformation research. Olga has vast experience working with Ukrainian and international media. Her reports were published and aired by TIME, The Washington Post, The Daily Beast, NPR, New Lines Mag (USA), Monocle (UK), EFE (Spain), Il Foglio, ANSA (Italy). She is a former head of foreign news desk at the independent Ukrainian Hromadske TV.

Olga worked on several disinformation research projects and was the lead author of Mythos Labs' reports on Russian disinformation/propaganda related to invasion of Ukraine, which were featured on BBC, Le Monde, Huffington Post, Newsweek and other major outlets. She is a former scholar of the Digital Sherlocks program at the Atlantic Council’s DFR Lab. Olga Tokariuk holds an MA in political science and international relations from the University of Bologna (Italy) and an MA in journalism from the Taras Shevchenko University of Kyiv (Ukraine).
