Using Evidence-based Communications to Tackle Corruption
Anti-corruption communications can backfire if poorly designed. NDI has developed new resources that delve into anti-corruption communications research and provide insights for more effective messaging through tailoring, targeting and testing.
Request for Proposal (RFP) - Social Media Monitoring Tool for Global Information Integrity Research
NDI is currently seeking vendors with established systems for monitoring both known and emerging global and regional narratives on social media platforms and the broader web. NDI’s research and projects on information integrity issues are focused on social and traditional media abroad, and the Institute does not have democratic development programs in the U.S. These systems should generate insightful analyses on the dissemination of these narratives.

The National Democratic Institute (NDI) welcomes the release today of sixteen people unjustly imprisoned by the Russian government, including U.S. journalists Evan Gershkovich and Alsu Kurmasheva, businessman Paul Whelan, and U.S. permanent resident Vladimir Kara-Murza – an NDI Democracy Awardee (2023) and a longtime advocate for freedom in Russia. We also welcome the freedom of seven Russians wrongfully detained by their own government for peaceful civic and political activities.
