That same month, it was also announced that Harry will be serving as one of 15 commissioners of The Aspen Institute. The not-for-profit initiative will consist of a six-month study on the state of misinformation and disinformation in America. "As I've said, the experience of today's digital world has us inundated with an avalanche of misinformation, affecting our ability as individuals as well as societies to think clearly and truly understand the world we live in," Harry said in a statement. "It's my belief that this is a humanitarian issue, and as such, it demands a multi-stakeholder response from advocacy voices, members of the media, academic researchers, and both government and civil society leaders. I'm eager to join this new Aspen commission and look forward to working on a solution-oriented approach to the information disorder crisis."
Katie Couric serves as a commission cochair, along with cybersecurity expert Chris Krebs and Colour of Change's President Rashad Robinson.
