Across the EU, the Digital Services Act (DSA) is reshaping how very large online platforms and search engines manage systemic risks, including risks linked to electoral processes and information integrity. In February 2026, the European Commission marked two years of DSA application (for most platforms since February 2024) and reiterated the shared enforcement model between national Digital Services Coordinators and the Commission for the largest services.

This proposal is designed for a cross-border civic coalition (NGOs, journalists, election observers, digital rights groups) that wants to coordinate a practical 2026 “election integrity playbook” aligned with the DSA’s risk-management logic: define what to monitor, how to escalate, what transparency to demand, and how to communicate findings responsibly.

Which coordination model to adopt (rapid monitoring, structured escalation, or transparency-first)

Which minimum evidence standards and safeguards we require

Options include attachments to authoritative references and date ranges because timing is explicitly part of the decision.
