Who We Are

Kritikos Institute is an initiative by academics, journalists, experts, and writers, thinkers, and artists, who bring to the fore the nuanced, hidden, and involuntary mechanisms by which intellectual freedom and democratic debate are undermined.

Against the backdrop of an evolving Al-driven future, we examine, expose and discuss how intellectual and political freedoms in public and individual life are subverted and manipulated.

We believe we need to broaden and open the traditional research base to allow for more diverse voices - and that formal education is no prerequisite to being an expert.

We dive into our cognitive states, political rationales, and social realities that inform our intellectual minds to make important decisions about what is real, true, meaningful, and vital to human and social life.
