This survey, conducted across all seven provinces of the country, presents the perspectives of the general public based on their experiences regarding the situation and spread of misinformation in Nepal. It covers the primary mediums used for dissemination, the threat actors involved, the most common subjects of misinformation, the public’s ability to identify it, the actions taken upon countering it, and the measures that should be adopted for its future mitigation. The study reveals that a sense of indifference among the public where individuals do nothing even after realizing a piece of information is false is a major reason for its spread. The study concludes that actions such as reporting to the platform and sharing sources for fact-checking are effective against misinformation. Additionally, it emphasizes that misinformation can be reduced by introducing this subject into school curricula, promoting digital literacy, and conducting awareness campaigns at the community level.
