Private messaging platforms represent one of the most important communication tools among users, while simultaneously emerging as a key medium in the dissemination of political propaganda and disinformation. They also often lack regulatory oversight because of (or in some cases thanks to) their private or encrypted features.
To address this critical dichotomy, the Forum on Information and Democracy launched, in February 2025, a workstream on Identifying solutions to ensure information integrity on private messaging platforms, under the leadership of the governments of Luxembourg and of Ukraine, and in collaboration with interested States of the International Partnership.
