This webinar is organised in partnership with the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism (GIFCT).
For our April webinar of the 2022 Tech Against Terrorism & GIFCT e-learning series, we take an in-depth look into the use of audio content by terrorist and violent extremist actors. Audio content comes in the form of spoken statements, speeches, podcasts, and music, and allows users ways to communicate through a non-written medium. As audio content does not rely on written or image based content, it provides a unique moderation challenge as platforms cannot rely on established moderation methods used for other types of content. In this webinar we will examine with an expert panel how audio content is used by a range of terrorist and violent extremist actors to recruit, radicalise, and operationalise into extremist movements. We will also discuss the challenges to effectively detecting and moderating audio content, and opportunities to counter terrorist and violent extremist narratives which use audio mediums, whilst safeguarding human rights and freedom of expression.
As always, this webinar session will finish with a Q&A session that is open to all attendees. More information about the speakers and the agenda will be shared soon.If you would like to sign up to this free webinar, please register with your institutionally affiliated email address – note that registration does not guarantee participation, and access to this webinar will be limited.
