Poinformowalimy

Poinformowalimy is a neologism used in discussions of public communication and information studies to describe a deliberate practice of informing audiences in a clear, verifiable, and timely manner. The term appears to be a portmanteau-like construction derived from informować (to inform) with a prefix that signals action by a group, suggesting a collective commitment to transparent communication. It originated in online debates and policy notes in the 2020s and has since appeared in think-tank reports and journalism commentary as a descriptor for a standard of informational practice.

Definition and aims

Poinformowalimy denotes an approach to communicating information that prioritizes transparency, evidence-based content, and accessibility. Core elements include citing sources, providing context, presenting data in plain language, offering updates as new information becomes available, and inviting audience feedback. The practice emphasizes accountability and the traceability of claims.

Usage and contexts

The term is used to label statements, reports, or briefings that aim to proactively reduce misinformation by making information easy to verify and re-share. It often features in formal guidelines, internal memos, or analytical articles that discuss best practices in public communication and institutional transparency.

Characteristics compared with other practices

Compared with opaque or unverified briefings, poinformowalimy favors verifiable data and explicit sourcing. It is seen by supporters as part of a broader movement toward accountable information sharing, though critics worry that it can become performative or overly structured in some contexts.
