In an era where digital networks amplify both truth and falsehood at unprecedented speeds, humanitarian organisations face mounting challenges in maintaining operational integrity and public trust. CDAC Network's panel at Humanitarian Networks and Partnership's Week (HNPW) 2025 examined the intricate relationship between disinformation and humanitarian accountability, and explored how false narratives can impede aid delivery, compromise community relationships, and distort public understanding of humanitarian crises.

Drawing from experiences in contexts like Sudan and Ukraine, our panel explored practical solutions for maintaining transparency and trust while adapting to the accelerated pace of modern information flows. We ask the core question: how do we protect humanitarian integrity in an age of algorithmic amplification and strategic disinformation?
