Our Story

Co-designing for Trust was built to respond to the increasing impact of misinformation that our team members observed as part of their work. The problem is growing, and we are not adequately equipping our communities to navigate it.

Our diverse team of researchers and educators came together in early 2022, to create Co-Designing for Trust, and invite the communities themselves to be part of the solution.

On this journey, we are grateful for the funding as part of the National Science Foundation’s Convergence Accelerator and for continued support from our partner institutions: the University of Washington, the University of Texas at Austin, Seattle Central College and the Black Brilliance Research Project. This project was supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. 2230616.
