Misinformation is a global challenge, but successful mitigations must come from the communities affected and not be imposed by external entities.
Co·Insights combined computational social science and ethnographic inquiry with a unique platform that enabled community organizations, fact-checkers, and academics to work together to respond effectively to harmful content targeting communities.
Researchers worked in partnership with Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities, as content targeting them is too often out of sight from mainstream response efforts: It is in languages and on platforms beyond those traditionally considered in the United States.
This project concluded in 2024. Learn more about the work below.
