01In brief

The short answer.

Information Integrity and Public Trust subject groups are moderated forums where media researchers and science communicators discuss open questions in the information and public trust field, such as misinformation and disinformation and institutional trust. Each group is listed once its moderation, terms and hosting are in place, with its scope and how to join. A group informs the platform's work and has no authority over its findings.

From enquiry to contribution.

Canvas · from enquiry to contributionDesign, not a record
Dialogue and research groups: a working group from charter to sunsetA charter sets the question and the code of conduct; members join with declared interests; a workplan produces deliverables that are reviewed and credited; the group reports and sunsets or renews. Design of the process, not a record of a run.

03Geography

People and exposure in Eastern Europe.

For dialogue and research groups, in GRF's situational-awareness reading, the map opens on population density, night lights and flood water, framed on Eastern Europe; 3 further NASA layers wait in the list.

The interactive map needs JavaScript; the layer list and sources are below.

04How it works

Subject groups in Information Integrity and Public Trust.

  • Each entry shows its scope, host or owner, and terms.
  • Participation follows published rules, applied equally.
  • Taking part gives no authority or influence over findings.
05Key terms

Terms used on this page.

Each term as this page uses it. Where a standard-setting body defines the term, the wording follows that body.

TermDefinition
Community of practiceA group of people who share a concern or a craft and learn to do it better by interacting regularly; the term comes from Lave and Wenger's work on situated learning.
Chatham House RuleA rule under which participants may use information received but may not reveal the identity or affiliation of speakers.
MisinformationFalse or misleading information that people share without any intent to deceive.
MalinformationGenuine information shared out of context or to cause harm, such as leaked private data.
