Some of the topics that, this year, will be addressed on the presentations, panel discussions and workshops  will be the electoral processes in the region and the world, fact-checking, protection of privacy on the Internet, fake news, as well as many other topics.

This year we will talk about the recent elections in Serbia and Macedonia, and the unavoidable topic will certainly be the last presidential election in the United States and a selection of Donald Trump as president.

Referendum on leaving the UK from the EU “Brexit”, which was the top topic of the world’s media, will certainly be one of the most interesting topics that will be addressed on POINT 6.0 conference. We’ll talk also about the recent protests of citizens in Romania.
