Misinformation, Radicalization & Digital Propaganda Behavioral Unit
Analyzing digital propaganda and radicalization pathways to protect civil society from information warfare.
Unit Mission
The Misinformation, Radicalization & Digital Propaganda Behavioral Unit analyzes digital propaganda, misinformation, and radicalization pathways — developing the behavioral and analytical frameworks needed to understand how information warfare affects civil society and democratic institutions. The unit applies behavioral science, digital media analysis, and counter-extremism research to map radicalization pathways, analyze propaganda campaigns, and develop the counter-narratives and platform accountability measures needed to protect civil society from information warfare.
Key Functions
Propaganda Analysis
Analyzing digital propaganda campaigns — mapping information operations, identifying coordinated inauthentic behavior, and documenting the techniques used to manipulate public opinion and undermine democratic institutions.
Radicalization Research
Researching radicalization pathways — analyzing the psychological, social, and digital factors that drive radicalization, and developing the evidence-based interventions needed to prevent violent extremism.
Counter-Narrative Development
Developing counter-narratives to extremist propaganda — creating evidence-based messaging that challenges extremist narratives, builds resilience to radicalization, and supports communities vulnerable to information warfare.
