Really? It's news to me that The Democracy Project is a rebranding of the Integrity Institute. I thought the latter was a newer initiative. Can anyone confirm?

#TIL about the #IntegrityInstitute;

"We’re a community-powered think tank transforming how social platforms impact society through public interest research, cross-sector collaboration, and community engagement."

https://www.integrityinstitute.org/about-us

Seems to be a cross between @iftas and the Center for Humane Technology. In that their focus is improving trust & safety on the "social Internet", and like #HumaneTech, many of them are former (or current) platform workers.

"The Integrity Institute website has been created to publish some of the research that helps explain why the wellbeing of the average New Zealander has been gradually declining over the past 40 years and is likely to continue to do so unless action is taken. Research has been carried out by researchers who have a PhD or other relevant qualifications."
