Establishing Ukrainian eSports Counter Disinformation Teams and Tournament
Leveraging the popularity and penetration of video games in Eastern Europe, the implementer will develop an eSports program at American Spaces in Ukraine.
eSports athletes will need professional training to form a talent pipeline to professional teams in Ukraine.
In tandem with traditional eSports training, these athletes will receive counter disinformation/conflict resolution training to confront foreign propaganda and disinformation in competitive online gaming spaces.
The project will culminate with an eSports tournament and coalition-building event on the sidelines of the tournament.
