At Maldita.es, we believe that education, Media Literacy and the promotion of critical thinking are essential in the fight against disinformation. That is why we make resources available to the public such as the Caja de Herramientas to learn how to verify information, or a Repositorio de Recursos with infographics, videos, games and educational materials. We also offer a Máster en Periodismo de Investigación, and through Maldita Educa we provide courses and workshops for all audiences.
