Peer-reviewed research and published reports
Alongside our client work, our research appears in academic journals and institutional publications, from WHO operational guidance to peer-reviewed studies of health and climate discourse.
A thematic analysis of how users expressed pandemic fatigue across digital platforms, identifying the narrative themes that matter for infodemic management as new health emergencies emerged.
A five-step operational process, from signal detection through verification, risk assessment, response design, and outreach, giving health authorities a practical framework for active infodemic management.
A deep analysis of information and misinformation on social media around the production and consumption of animal products, and the narratives shaping debate on meat and dairy alternatives.
A development and implementation study of the World Health Organization's Early AI-Supported Response with Social Listening (EARS) platform, adapting social analytics for real-time public-health understanding.
Drawing on more than 873 million online interactions, a demonstration of how real-time social analytics can serve as a sensing function for inclusive policymaking and crisis management.
Talks and appearances
Selected webinars, panels, trainings, and invited talks where we have presented our research. Each links to a recording or slides where one is publicly available.
A walkthrough of the three archetypes of male creators championing plant protein, and what they mean for anyone trying to reach young men with plant-based messaging.
A conversation on our bottom-up, big-data approach to uncovering large-scale behavioral and cultural insight on the climate crisis, including climate anxiety.
A digitally interactive session on the spectrum of climate-related emotions beyond anxiety, including grief, guilt, and anger, framed through our bottom-up social listening approach. Attendees spanned data science, policy, law, and engineering. Key takeaways from the workshop →
A session on how bad-faith actors hijack online conversations to deepen polarization and stall climate progress, drawing on our research into misinformation's reach across climate, public health, digital democracy, and human rights. Real-world examples and case studies equipped UN agencies, policymakers, NGOs, researchers, funders, and media with ways to counter misinformation in moments of crisis.
A discussion of how large-scale data, behavioral, and cultural insight expose the mechanisms behind climate and health dis- and misinformation: the sources, the denialist network strategies, and the tactics used to stall climate progress. Key takeaways from the discussion →
A virtual training on interdisciplinary approaches to health disinformation that goes beyond vaccines, covering how false narratives spread and gain traction, and how they intersect with and are amplified by climate disinformation. More on this session →
A panel on emerging climate disinformation trends and how these narratives reinforce information voids that erode public trust in climate solutions, initiatives, and policy, with a focus on building a more resilient information ecosystem.
