8/10

The webinar features recognized experts from international institutions (OECD, World Bank, FERDI) and presents data-driven analyses. The discussion is well-structured and references specific methodologies (TOSSD, AI-based classification). However, it is a debate format with no formal peer review, and some claims rely on the speakers' expertise.
