This $149,999 federal Project Grant award from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Office of Digital Humanities (CFDA 45.169) supports a collaborative research project between Dr. Rachel Kuo and Mark Calaguas. The project, titled "Transnational Disinformation Networks and Asian Diasporic Politics," combines archival research and community oral histories to examine how experiences of trauma, war, colonialism, and power hierarchies influence the spread of mis- and disinformation within Asian and Asian American communities. The project plans to host community storytelling workshops to train volunteers to collect intergenerational and multilingual oral histories, with the goal of informing contemporary debates about technology, democracy, and the intersection of geopolitics and disinformation. The grant period runs from February 1, 2025 to May 31, 2026.
