Verification and reporting on disinformation

Trace a source, question an image and cover falsehood without amplifying it. Build a verification method the newsroom can document, explain and share.

Who is it for?

Reporters, digital desks, trainers and verification teams

What we will work on

  • Check a piece of content’s origin, context and circulation.
  • Distinguish false information, uncertainty and organised campaigns.
  • Write a clear verification story without promoting the false claim.

At the end of the workshop

A verification file and a shared editorial protocol.

A shared approach

Every format is tailored to your objectives, the group’s experience and the newsroom’s constraints.
