Protecting The Information Ecosystem

Protecting The Information Ecosystem: what are genealogists' ethical responsibilities to our field and our world?

Genealogists use an array of technologies in our research process, but how do these technologies affect our relationship with information? And how does that relationship impact the field of genealogy, the information ecosystem, and the world? We are witnessing the rise of misinformation, technofascism, global inequality, and the rapidly accelerating climate crisis. As custodians of history, we are in a unique position to push back against the pollution of our information ecosystem and our planet.
