Information integrity
Concerned about the ways misinformation, disinformation and hate speech are shaping communication ecosystems? Ready to confront the surge in harmful information impacting humanitarian efforts and the communities we work with?
CDAC Network offers members access to a Community of Practice to foster learning, support and collaboration to safeguard information integrity in crises.
CDAC and our members work at the frontlines of information integrity, developing practical tools that help verify content, promoting reliable information sharing, and providing media and digital literacy upskilling to boost resilience to harmful information. Together, our Community of Practice enables us to share expertise and enhance our collective efforts to secure safer information ecosystems.
