Would love to have you join us, ask questions, share your expertise about
Spanish language disinformation on the internet, platforms, open platforms.

This webinar follows a series of other workshops and webinars we had in the
past as part of the Wikicredibility Initiative, a volunteer initiative
between Wikimedians and Hacks Hackers to support research and credibility
tools on Wikipedia and wikidata.

n this event, speakers will dissect the challenges in the news and online
information ecosystem in the region. We will discuss the following themes:


   -

   Knowledge and information reliability on Wikipedia for reporting on
   current news
   -

   The linkage between media ecosystems and open-knowledge platforms
   -

   Fact-checking for underrepresented communities and underrepresented
   indigenous languages
