Stanford Platform Governance Research Initiative

The Stanford Platform Governance Research Initiative is a project that explores how technology platforms, like social media or online marketplaces, can be regulated for better societal outcomes. It focuses on understanding the challenges and opportunities of governing these platforms, considering issues such as privacy, security, content moderation, and fair access. The initiative brings together researchers, policymakers, and industry experts to analyze current practices and propose thoughtful, evidence-based solutions that balance innovation with the public interest, promoting a safer and more equitable digital environment.
