Athena Strategies is proud to spotlight Nazli Togrul, who has served as one of our outstanding Georgetown Tech & Public Policy Democracy Fellows throughout 2024. See Georgetown’s profile of her here.
Nazli has played a pivotal role at Athena Strategies, researching and developing our Misinformation Roundup to shed light on emerging false narratives and conspiracy theories, and help amplify fact checks and media literacy. Her effective blend of journalism expertise and academic focus on mis/disinformation has been invaluable in our mission to help strengthen public understanding and practices surrounding election integrity and democratic resilience.
Both Nazli and our Democracy Fellow from the first half of 2024, Tina Xinyuan Zhang also did excellent work scouring the web for superior sources of accurate election information, including fact sheets, websites, and videos that help amplify understanding about U.S. elections. See our resources page for many of these sources.
We are grateful to both Nazli and Tina for their dedication and contributions this year, and are proud of the work both of them are continuing to do.
