Maldita.es joins forces with Oxfam-Intermón, Oxfam Italia, and Openpolis to fight disinformation and hate speech with the support of the European Union

This project will unfold over 2 years and will allow Maldita.es to expand the work of Maldita Migración by creating educational materials, games, and other tools to be made available to citizens so they can make informed decisions.

The work of journalists and researchers from Openpolis and Maldita.es in this project will investigate the trends of disinformation affecting migrants and refugees, studying their origin, distribution, and impact.

The project aims to create a community of more than 15,000 people in Italy and Spain who can actively collaborate in the distribution of verified content to reduce disinformation and hate speech in Europe.

Furthermore, media literacy workshops and training will be held for journalists, teachers, local authorities, and members of human rights organizations because at Maldita.es, we believe that education is the best tool to fight disinformation.

Oxfam Italy and Oxfam Intermón will carry out campaigns and initiatives to promote fact-checking and combat anti-migrant disinformation within the scope of this project.

Maldita Migración is the Maldita.es project that scrutinizes hoaxes about immigration and asylum, seeking the truth of the data and the facts through fact-checking tools.
