Launch of the #StopWar Civic Information and Communication Campaign

Automatically translated summary. The full article is available in Romanian.

The National Platform of the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum has set up an initiative group to design and run a nationwide civic information and communication campaign in Moldova. The campaign, provisionally called #StopWar, will be carried out during the state of emergency.

The initiative group will work with civil society organisations, media outlets, opinion leaders, subject-matter experts and communication specialists. It is currently drafting a Campaign Plan, built around three objectives.

The first is to promote solidarity with Ukraine by encouraging people to help refugees. The second is to spread pro-peace messages among the population throughout the Republic of Moldova, countering pro-war propaganda and fake news while building greater social cohesion. The third is to prevent the spread of panic and encourage people to stay calm and well informed from reliable sources, including through action against disinformation.
