Over 50 employees of public institutions based in Chisinau, who are involved in the implementation of the Association Agreement, were trained how to prevent the misinformation about the European integration agenda of the Republic of Moldova, IPN reports.

According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and European Integration, during April 10-11 the institution, in cooperation with the European External Action Service, staged a seminar entitled “Strategic Communication” for European coordinators of central public institutions of Chisinau.

The goal of the seminar was to contribute to developing and strengthening the strategic communication skills in order to improve the process of popularizing the achieved results and to prevent the misinformation about the European integration agenda of the Republic of Moldova.

Within the seminar, the over 50 participants were familiarized with the main communication methods and techniques used by the East StratCom Team and with the method of applying these in local context.

Created in March 2015, East StratCom is a component part of the European External Action Service focused on proactive communication of EU policies and activities in the Eastern neighborhood, namely Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine, and on combating of propaganda.
