A video can be real. The voice can sound familiar. The photograph can look convincing. Yet, the entire story could be fabricated. AI-generated deepfakes are making it increasingly difficult to distinguish fact from fiction, with serious implications for public trust and elections.

With artificial intelligence making it easier to create and spread convincing but false information, the stakes for electoral integrity and public trust are becoming even higher. The conversation is bringing together voices from the media, electoral institutions, security agencies, civil society and technology to examine the challenges, responsibilities and solutions. What are the risks? Who is responsible? And how do we stay ahead of the threat? Meet the discussants and moderator who will lead this important conversation. Join PUNCH Media Foundation as we explore what it will take to safeguard the truth and protect the vote. ๐Ÿ“… Wednesday, 11 November 2026 ๐Ÿ•š 11 am WAT ๐Ÿ“ Zoom Be part of the conversation. #PUNCHWebinarSeries #2027Elections #AIandElections #PUNCHMediaFoundation

Society flourishes when integrity and values are nurtured at the personal and communal level. At PMF, integrity underpins how we engage with communities, partners, and stakeholders. Accountability, honesty, and principled action form the foundation for progress, trust, and cohesion. When personal and collective integrity guide behavior, resilience and strength follow naturally. #MondayMotivation #PUNCHNewspapers #PUNCHMediaFoundation

A fabricated video. A cloned voice. A convincing but false election report. With AI capabilities integrated across the internet and social media platforms, misinformation takes on convincing new forms, spreading at unprecedented speed to influence voter opinions at scale. The challenge goes beyond identifying what is fake. It is about protecting public trust, informed choices and the credibility of our elections.
