Description:
This initiative develops, administers and tests the efficacy of a Multistakeholder Crisis Response Network to help achieve strengthened connectivity and interaction among the multistakeholder community - social media platforms, civil society organizations, and G7 member and observer governments - dedicated to countering conflict-related disinformation in and around Ukraine. Project activities include: (1) mapping key stakeholders’ respective capabilities, functions, needs, and points of contact to identify gaps in the overall response and lay the groundwork for coordination; (2) identifying and operationalizing a secure shared communications channel to intake and match requests for support with available resources and capabilities across the network; (3) convening ad hoc briefings in meetings with stakeholders; and (4) undertaking analysis and collecting lessons learned during the response to the Ukrainian crisis. It does so to develop a post-conflict playbook for future crises threatening other at-risk democracies.

Expected Results:
The expected outcomes of the project include: (1) strengthened connectivity among the multi-stakeholder community dedicated to countering disinformation in and around Ukraine in a gender and diversity-sensitive manner; (2) improved capacity across the multi-stakeholder community to intake and respond to requests for support from peer stakeholders in a gender-responsive manner, to aid civil society organizations operating on the ground in Ukraine; and (3) developed a deeper understanding of best practices for multi-stakeholder efforts to adopt a gender-sensitive approach. This is to counter threats to the information environment during the later stages of the Ukraine conflict and future crises.
