🔍 Findings: Disinformation slightly reduces trust in the AEC, but refutations help mitigate the damage. However, preemptive AEC communications didn’t boost trust further, suggesting high baseline trust acts as a ceiling. #ElectoralIntegrity #Disinformation 4/5

🌏 Bottom line: Australian democracy is resilient, but even high trust can be undermined by disinfo. This calls for balanced, evidence-based responses—fighting disinformation while safeguarding free political expression. See also our discussion paper: csrm.cass.anu.edu.au/researc… 5/5

The passing of Prof Chaiwat Satha-Anand brings me great sadness. Aj. Chaiwat's sharp mind was surpassed only by his gentle benevolence. He offered mentorship and support to me more than once, purely out of kindness. I feel privileged to have known him. thaipbsworld.com/peace-advoc…
