Public-Facing Professionals: Survey on Information Access

We are running a paid study on how public-facing experts gather information and stay informed on emerging issues. This research helps us understand the shifting landscape of knowledge distribution and trusted sourcing. Your insights will inform how we evaluate professional information-gathering habits across various fields.

You will complete a short remote survey detailing your professional experience and information workflows. The survey asks you to walk through the sources you trust, how you verify facts, and the ways you share knowledge with your audience. You will react to different scenarios regarding emerging issues and explain your typical engagement strategies. The entire process is asynchronous and designed to be completed quickly on your own schedule.

We are looking for influential professionals who actively shape public understanding or community discourse. We welcome educators, media professionals, nonprofit leaders, cultural institution directors, researchers, and community organizers.
