This report outlines an analysis of 68 collected interviews telling stories of experience of the COVID-19 infodemic by infodemic managers to draw out learning about the impact of, and response to, the COVID-19 infodemic and the utility of story-based approaches as a tool for evaluation and learning. Contributors worked in Ministries of Health, WHO Regional and Country Offices, and organizations including the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), universities, think tanks, and a wide range of Civil Society Organizations, particularly those focusing on health. They came from 41 different countries.
The purpose of this analysis was to provide practical insights and learning for use by practitioners and decision makers within the infodemic management community, including policy makers and researchers.
