With the summer here, we take a look back at some of the work been done by RAN Practitioners and its members so far this year. While the COVID-19 pandemic might not yet be a thing of the past, the relaxation in measures has enabled practitioners to meet once again in person at various Working Group meetings and events. We have been out and about, meeting with some of these practitioners both at RAN events and at their places of work. In this issue of the RAN Practitioners Update, we travel to Athens, to meet with members of the RAN YOUNG platform and we travel to Vilnius to meet with an organisation on the frontline in tackling disinformation and conspiracy narratives.
