ON THE CODE OF RESPONSIBLE FACT-CHECKING
Within the framework of the "Dialog about Fakes 2.0" forum, TASS and the ANPO "Dialog Regions" signed a memorandum to establish the Global Fact-Checking Network (GFCN). The fight against fake news and its control is a significant and widely discussed issue on a global scale, and international cooperation in this area is essential. Journalists, experts, and fact-checking organizations can join the Network after they sign the Code of Responsible Fact-Checking, complete the necessary training and pass the check for compliance.
The “Code of responsible fact-checking“ project is introduced to the expert community and fact-checkers.
The “Code of responsible fact-checking“ is a list of norms and principles which, its authors believe, every fact-checker should follow during their work. The GFCN Code is aimed at ensuring accuracy, objectivity and transparency during the fact-checking process.
After the official registration of the International Fact-Checking Association, all participants will be invited to sign this Code, so if you have any comments, additions, send them in free form to the email address forum_fakes@dialog-regions.ru
If you want to become a part of the Global Fact-Checking Network (GFCN), tell about yourself via the same email address and describe (in free form) either your own experience in countering fakes or the experience of your organisation in this field.
