Knight Foundation to invest $5M in research to combat misinformation
The Knight Foundation will invest $5 million in research projects aimed at addressing online misinformation with a focus on the impact on communities of color, the nonprofit organization said Wednesday.
The investment includes a $1.5 million open call for proposals for research that "can lead to effective interventions to mitigate the effects of racialized disinformation or targeted manipulation of communities of color," according to the Knight Foundation announcement.
"Demand is only growing for fresh thinking about our democracy's digital information challenges," John Sands, Knight's director of learning and impact, said in the announcement. "As more of our lives are lived online, independent research is increasingly needed to drive actionable insights and equitable solutions."
