Empowering people of all ages, in multiple languages, how to sort fact from fiction online.
关于我们
MediaWise is a social-first digital media literacy initiative of the nonprofit Poynter Institute. The program teaches people of all ages and backgrounds how to responsibly engage with online content in the age of information overload. The fact-checking enterprise was created in 2018 to empower citizens to find trusted sources and make sense of the vast amount of information at their fingertips. We bring simple, yet effective, digital media literacy tools to people where they are — whether they’re on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter or TikTok or in one of the countries where MediaWise operates — and walk them through every step to determine what’s real and what’s not on the internet. Through MediaWise, everyone can do their part to reduce the spread of misinformation and elevate the truth. Follow MediaWise on social media to learn how to debunk viral claims and be more critical consumers of online information. Explore programs and be part of the solution at poynter.org/mediawise. We believe that when facts prevail, democracy wins.

We are incredibly excited to partner with Comprova for the adaptation of our 10-day micro-learning course! Meeting the audience where they are - on digital devices through short educational intervals - can play a critical role in empowering individuals with media literacy skills when they are short on time. Our materials are designed to be easily adapted and localized for any community or country - globally. Whether you are interested in being a content partner or funding media literacy initiatives, please reach out!
?? O Comprova acaba de lan?ar um canal no WhatsApp para publica??o de checagens e outros conteúdos. A ideia é reduzir a distancia entre o projeto e o público e aumentar a velocidade de distribui??o das verifica??es. E ampliar ainda mais o alcance das checagens, que hoje s?o republicadas pelos 42 veículos da coaliz?o. ??? Os assinantes do canal já têm acesso ao minicurso Aprenda a identificar boatos nas redes. Durante 10 dias, os assinantes recebem gratuitamente li??es diárias com dicas para detectar conteúdos enganosos que circulam pelas redes sociais ou por aplicativos de mensagem e assim aumentar a sua capacidade crítica e a resistência para a desinforma??o. ?? O curso foi desenvolvido pela MediaWise, iniciativa de letramento midiático do Poynter Institute, com apoio do WhatsApp, e adaptado para o público brasileiro pelo Comprova.
