Befragung von Expert*innen zur globalen Informationslandschaft 2023

The 2023 IPIE expert survey identifies the availability of reliable information and diversity of voices as critical for a healthy information landscape. Social media platforms and politicians are viewed as primary threats across all government types, though specific concerns vary: experts on autocracies highlight state-led manipulation, while those focusing on democracies emphasize foreign interference and climate misinformation. A significant majority of researchers cite the lack of access to platform data as the primary obstacle to understanding the global information environment.
