ABOUT THE PROJECT:
I4C-EA initiated a research project titled “COVID Cover Ups and Gags” to track East Asian governments’ information, disinformation and misinformation efforts in their respective policy responses to the Covid-19 pandemic from 2020 to 2021. The research covered four countries, China, Myanmar, Indonesia, the Philippines, and one thematic area, particularly how COVID-19 misinformation increases the vulnerability and security of migrants and refugees in receiving countries in East Asia such as Thailand, Korea, Singapore and Malaysia.
OBJECTIVES:
- Creating awareness of state’s disinformation and misinformation and its impact on health and human rights.
- Show how state cover-ups and gags harm health of marginalized groups and create a chilling effect on other rights.

- Centering marginalized voices and civil society concerns in state policies against the pandemic.
