North Rhine-Westphalia Media Authority
In times of fake news, disinformation and hate speech, institutions like the North Rhine-Westphalia Media Authority are more important than ever. We support them with information brochures as well as digital and video content.
Committed to freedom of expression
Our work for the North Rhine-Westphalia Media Authority is a meta-project. Through magazine brochures, digital stories and explanatory videos we explain how modern media supervision protects the democratic public. This state authority takes action against disinformation and hate speech, strengthens diversity in North Rhine-Westphalia and promotes digital participation – in a digital world that is becoming increasingly confusing.
The activities of this state-run agency include scientific research, regulation and supervision as well as practical programs ranging from media scouts at schools to prevention campaigns such as safer-sexting.de and an AI tool used nationwide to detect digital infringements.
Nansen & Piccard has been providing communications support to North Rhine-Westphalia Media Authority for several years – and shown why the Media Authority’s work is indispensable for our democratic public today.
