This year, the Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab (DFRLab) is taking its annual 360/Open Summit on the road with 360/OS: Around the World. We’ll be talking human rights, emerging technology, disinformation, and digital resilience at RightsCon in Costa Rica and NATO’s Riga StratCom Dialogue in Latvia, proving that the DFRLab can in fact be (almost) everywhere all at once.

Join us as our global team takes to the stage and screen to share our research on digital ecosystems in Ukraine, China, Venezuela, and across Africa. We’ll examine the effects of gendered disinformation, and democratic approaches to a decentralized digital world. Our experts will be joined by policymakers and journalists, activists and advocates, and industry representatives striving to build and ensure a rights-respecting, transparent, and democratic future for all.

At RightsCon we will preview our forthcoming Task Force for a Trustworthy Future Web report, gather human rights leaders to talk digital frameworks in Africa, discuss disinformation in Latin America, and more. At the Riga StratCom Dialogue, we’ll join with European partners to talk all things Russian information operations, strategies for digital resilience, and transatlantic collaboration. 

In keeping with the DFRLab’s commitment to growing the community advancing a more rights-respecting ecosystem, we’ll be hosting 360/Digital Sherlock trainings at both RightsCon and the Riga StratCom Dialogue.

In between, we’ll be platforming conversations and launching reports in Washington, DC and online covering everything from encrypted messaging to digital identity and the tech that keeps activists safe. As our team goes around the world and back, let us know if you’ll be joining us in San José or Riga, and follow along on our Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn pages using the hashtag #360OS and #360CostaRiga.  

You can find a full list of opportunities to see us in person and online below. But check back here as additional sessions are confirmed.  We look forward to seeing you, everywhere, all at once!
