International Observatory on Information and Democracy (OID): A Major New Report on the State News Media, AI and Data Governance
01/29/2025 2:30 PM - 4:00 PM in Berlin (Deutschland)
As part of the Forum on Information and Democracy’s Global Dissemination month, the Alexander von Humboldt Institute for Internet and Society (HIIG) is opening its doors for a special multi-stakeholder event. This gathering will bring together academics, activists, and policymakers for an exclusive showcase of the OID’s latest findings. The OID’s results will be presented by Professor Jeanette Hofmann and Professor Robin Mansel, followed by a “Digitaler Salon” in the evening to publicly discuss key issues of information flows and the changing discourse climate, and the action necessary in different sectors.
After more than a year of work and a review of more than 3000 sources, the OID is launching its first meta-analysis. The report is set to provide a global understanding of the current structure of the information and communication space and its impact on public debate and democracy around the world.
