The European Media and Information Fund (EMIF) is accepting proposals for the Investigations into Disinformation Dynamics to address the existing knowledge gaps on the scale and scope of disinformation in Europe and foster a better understanding of the phenomenon and its impact on European audiences.

The Investigations into Disinformation Dynamics call establishes specific provisions regulating the process of applying for funding for the production of a range of multidisciplinary focus reports, covering both country specific and thematic analyses that can provide new insights into concrete cases of disinformation, the specific mechanics that enable its dissemination online, its effects on public opinion, and the impact of past and ongoing initiatives to counter disinformation.
