Advancing democracy
in the information age
The Institute for Information, the Internet,
and Democracy at Northeastern University
OUR MISSION
IIID conducts high-impact, responsive research that keeps pace with rapidly evolving technology while addressing its profound implications for users and society. We don't just study technology's effects on democracy—we actively work to understand, evaluate, and improve how these powerful tools can better serve democratic values and institutions.
