The Power 3.0 podcast explores cutting-edge research and ideas about authoritarian resurgence, democratic resilience, and other emergent trends in democracy studies, such as disinformation and transnational kleptocracy. Produced by the International Forum for Democratic Studies at the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) in Washington, DC, Power 3.0 examines how modern authoritarian regimes like those in China and Russia have in some ways leapfrogged democracies through exploiting aspects of globalization: the interconnected economic and financial system; communication technologies, social media networks and other features of the Internet; international norms and institutions; global media; academic openness and exchange; and culture.

Influence Operations During Elections in the Philippines and Beyond: A Conversation with Michael Navallo
With more than fifty national elections taking place during 2024, in countries that comprise more than half the world’s population, it has never been more critical to secure the integrity of the information space—and never more challenging. The Philippines has been reckoning with this challenge since at least its 2016 election, which led some to refer to the country as “Patient Zero” for its early experience with industrial-scale information manipulation, designed to confuse and manipulate the public.
Michael Navallo is a Filipino journalist, lawyer, and a former Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellow, who serves as Chief Communications Officer for the Supreme Court of the Philippines. On this episode of Power 3.0, Michael joined John K. Glenn and Adam Fivenson from the Forum to discuss the evolution of information manipulation in the Philippines and how democracy activists can respond. Together, they discuss the actors who amplify anti-democratic narratives and share lessons for the response around the globe.
