Congratulations to Dr Anna Wilson and Dr Puma Shen and the rest of the UK-Taiwan project team on winning the ESRC-NSTC grant to fund the project "Information Threats to Democratic Societies of UK and Taiwan: Interdisciplinary Approaches"!

Funded by ESRC-NSTC UK-Taiwan networking grant 2023 the project brings together researchers from academic and non-academic institutions which are interested in research on information threats, with the specific focus on China and Russia, and the impact of such threats on democratic societies of UK and Taiwan. The project will develop a list of policy-driven research questions which will allow us to address information threats and more specifically dis/misinformation in an optimal and complete fashion. It will deliver a position paper featuring a new research design for interdisciplinary and inter-regional analysis of dis/misinformation. 

Principal Investigators: Dr Anna Wilson (Oxford, UK) and Dr Puma Shen (Taipei, Taiwan)

Co-investigators: Bo-jiun Jing (Oxford, UK), Dr Scott Hale (Oxford, UK), Dr Ssu-Han Yu (Taipei, Taiwan), Dr Horng‐Luen Wang (Taipei, Taiwan)
