Sourcing & verification

Factual claims are verified with at least two independent sources or primary documents. Anonymous sources are used only when the information is in the public interest and cannot be obtained otherwise; their identity is known to at least one editor.

Opinion & analysis

Opinion pieces are clearly labelled and reflect the views of their authors. Analysis pieces present evidence for competing interpretations before drawing conclusions.

Corrections

We correct errors promptly and transparently. Corrections are appended to the article with the date of the change. To report an error, use the contact form and select “Corrections”.

Conflicts of interest

Contributors must disclose any financial, political or personal interests related to the subject they cover.

Our research desk follows a transparent, reproducible methodology.

1. Question framing — every project begins with a clearly defined policy question and scope.
2. Data collection — we combine open-source intelligence (OSINT), official statistics, structured interviews and field reporting.
3. Analysis — quantitative methods (time-series, regression, network analysis) are paired with qualitative case studies.
4. Peer review — research papers are reviewed by at least two external experts before publication.
5. Open publication — papers are released with abstracts, citations, DOIs and, where possible, replication data.

Security alerts are graded using a four-level risk matrix (Critical, High, Medium, Low) that weighs likelihood against impact, and are reviewed at least every 72 hours until expiry.
