Based on the results of this project, basic sources of information were identified that are typical for most Central Asian countries - television, social networks, Internet sites, radio. In this regard, it is worth highlighting the place of television in Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, as it is the leader in prevalence as the main source of information there.
As for media devices, the picture between the three countries was identical: television, mobile phone, smartphone, computer/laptop – in decreasing order of prevalence among the population.
according to the results of the survey on the emergence egypt cell phone number list of a feeling among respondents that they are being deceived, residents of Kazakhstan demonstrated greater criticality. However, even in the case of encountering such a “deceptive” information flow, respondents from Kazakhstan are unlikely to do anything; which cannot be said about other respondents from the “Central Asian triad”.
The study also examined the ability of residents of Central Asian countries to work with information. Thus, two basic skills were derived: collecting information from different sources and the ability to formulate search queries, respectively, according to the prevalence of each skill.
Review of the publication by Internews, funded by the European Union, in cooperation with the European Neighbourhood Council on the topic "Media consumption and disinformation in Central Asia: a quantitative and qualitative assessment in the context of geopolitics" (2023)
The presented study was conducted in 2023 and managed to cover the most relevant geopolitical events of that period, which are still taking place today. The publication is especially interesting not only because the phenomenon of disinformation is global. The region is a priority here. The fact is that Central Asia is a strategically significant zone that geographically divides the East and the West. For this reason, in the case of geopolitical conflicts, it is difficult for this territory to lean towards a certain “half of the world”. Due to this uncertainty, global media in this region tend to “not realize” and “misunderstand” something. In turn, such soil (with a lack of unity) has unique fertility for the spread of disinformation fields. Also, one of the most important factors that makes this study interesting is the participation of 30 actual media content producers, from each country.
In terms of trust in the media as such
