StopFake is proud to announce Riga as our next stop!

It’s an amazing opportunity to learn more about fake news, how to spot it, and how to counter disinformation.

StopFake is 10 years old this year. To celebrate, the famous Ukraine-based team of fact-checkers has teamed up with Google News Initiative to go on tour. We will share skills and tips to educate the current and next generation of journalists, fact-checkers, and teachers.

An offline session is set for 10:30 AM – 12:30 PM on September, 17 at the University of Latvia and 2:00 – 4:00 PM on September, 18 at Riga Stradiņš University.

The training will be held in English. 

Places are limited (up to 45 attendees). Priority will be given to working journalists, lecturers, teachers, and students, but we should still have places for other curious minds.  

To apply, please register for the training on September 17 with this Google form and September 18 with this Google form.

The deadline is 15 September 2024. Priority candidates will be informed immediately of their successful registration.

See you all!
