🗯 Both domestic and foreign actors are not always interested in effective risk and crisis communication. For various reasons, they may seek to undermine efforts to mitigate risks and crises. This talk will focus on different aspects of this challenge and explore possible ways to address it.

His research concerns risk and crisis communication, the long-term effects of media on societal beliefs, political advertising, political scandals, and the media coverage of elections.
