Challenges and Considerations for Misinformation Research
by Kolina Koltai 07 Apr '21

07 Apr '21

Hi AoIR-ists! I wanted to announce that the Center for an Informed Public at the University of Washington is planning a virtual workshop, “Challenges and Considerations for Misinformation Research<https://www.cip.uw.edu/2021/04/05/cip-challenges-considerations-misinformat…>,” on May 6 that will bring together academic teams researching mis- and disinformation to reflect on research best practices, data ethics and hurdles, and the normative and epistemological foundations of our collective work. The CIP invites academic and academic-adjacent researchers who have engaged in rapid-impact research projects and media engagement around misinformation events and conspiracy theories — particularly related to COVID-19, recent elections and the broader impacts of mis- and disinformation. The plan is to conduct four sessions over the course of a morning (two simultaneous sessions) before a larger wrap-up session. The four sessions will cover: research practices; data collection, use and ethics; communicating findings; and commitments to ethics and welfare. More information about the workshop themes and details can be found here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1A8_Phhio4EN-a84OnsYHWAycXG-MoAgS4-k3j_v…>. The CIP hopes to bring together researchers from across disciplines to discuss how misinformation research can have immediate impact, retain academic rigor, utilize diverse methodologies and be ethically and theoretically grounded. Those interested in attending should complete this Google Form<https://forms.gle/1ji7xxsr5xTGrVfV9>. Researchers who are engaged in the mis- and disinformation space are encouraged to forward the invitation to collaborators who would be interested in attending. Questions?
