About the GDPD

The Global Disinformation Policy Database (GDPD) is a comprehensive dataset of global policy responses to disinformation and misinformation. The GDPD is intended to enable researchers, policymakers, and technologists to better understand state responses to “information disorder”. The GDPD is developed and maintained by student researchers at the University of Texas. The project began as a research team in UT's Global Disinformation Lab.
