About Jaskirat Singh Bawa

I advise organisations navigating coordinated disinformation, AI-powered threats, and reputational crises — combining narrative intelligence, editorial judgement, and communications strategy to anticipate risk, prepare for issues, and lead effective responses.Before this, I built a 12-country, 16-language, 60-member counter-disinformation operation serving Meta, TikTok, Snap, and Google. Earlier, I spent over a decade in broadcast and digital journalism, covering legal, defence, and foreign affairs as a correspondent, and building fact-checking, OSINT, and editorial operations.That progression, from field reporter to operations lead to advisor, means I understand disinformation not just as a communications problem, but as a systems problem.Credentials include a US State Department IVLP Fellowship, membership in the Trust & Safety Professionals Association, and expert commentary for the BBC, ABC News, the Reuters Institute, and Bellingcat.

Experience

1. Senior Advisor - Risk & Issues Management

   Edelman

   Nov 2025 — Present · Delhi, IN

   At Edelman, I help organisations navigate digital risks in an escalating threat landscape: coordinated disinformation campaigns, bot-driven attacks, and AI-powered threats—including deepfakes, synthetic narratives, and automated networks—that spread faster than traditional response times allow. We do this via strategic counsel, training, digital-first crisis response, state-of-the-art AI-powered social listening tools, and the support of Edelman’s multidisciplinary global team with formidable communications and advisory experience.
