👇This report shows how #DigitalServicesAct, anti-disinformation Code & @EDMO_EUI worked together to limit the spread of #disinformation during 🇪🇺 elections. 

Important step & I’m looking into broader aspects to draw more lessons 🔜 stay tuned!

How can experts and government regain citizens’ trust?

By being more transparent about the interests, values and evidence that shape their work and the processes used to make decisions.

#Science4Policy

[EU Joint Research Centre @EU_JRC]

We have more #ScientificEvidence than ever to guide policymaking and yet we see growing political conflict.

Science alone is not enough!
The way we decide is influenced by many things, including our convictions & values. Policies need to take these into account.

We tend to take #democracy for granted.

But it's not. Inside our very home, in many 🇪🇺 countries, we need to renew the social contract.

For me the main ingredient of democracy is trust. We need to restore it.

Today is D-Day, the DSA entering into force. With ECAT, the European Centre on Algorithmic Transparency, the JRC is ready to support with scientific and technical analysis to create a safer internet for everyone. @EU_ScienceHub @stephen_quest @landabaso1 @emiliagogu #DSA #ECAT

[Thierry Breton @ThierryBreton]

Today, the Digital Services Act — #DSA — becomes legally enforceable for Very Large Online Platforms & Search Engines.

These systemic platforms play a very important role in our daily lives — so it was time for the EU to set our own rules.

A safer Internet for everyone 🇪🇺
