Countering Disinformation in Moldova
An IWPR project to support Moldovan media’s resilience to disinformation has helped journalists counter the huge amount of fake news flooding the country following Russia’s invasion of neighbouring Ukraine. The two-month pilot project, with funding by the United Kingdom’s Conflict, Stability and Security Fund (CSSF), was initially designed to support media outlets - as well as decision makers and officials - to monitor, detect and counter the general threat of disinformation.
