The website gadmo.eu gives access to more than 300 fact-checking articles in German. These articles have been produced by four organisations fighting disinformation in Germany and Austria: Agence France-Presse (AFP), Deutsche Presse-Agentur (dpa), Austria Presse Agentur (APA), and independent research network Correctiv.
The articles are the result of investigations into viral, suspect, and potentially harmful content that is circulating online. Disinformation has been particularly abundant since Russian troops invaded Ukraine a year ago.
The GADMO project received a funding from the European Union in 2022. The project gathers digital investigation teams, the Austrian Institute of Technology, and researchers from the TU Dortmund - which is the project coordinator. Greek company ATC also belongs to the coalition and manages all of its technical aspects.
In order to detect manipulated images, scientists analyse disinformation campaigns and develop AI-based tools.
The GADMO website will also include online tutorials and educational tools to help the public identify false information and limit its spread.
This project, co-financed by the European Commission, is an acknowledgement of AFP's value in digital investigation at a global level , said Yacine Le Forestier, AFP's deputy Europe director and Berlin bureau chief who co-manages European media projects at AFP. We are proud of being a member of this initiative and of helping fight disinformation in Europe, which is a major challenge for our democracies.
GADMO belongs to EDMO (European Digital Media Observatory). This independent coordinating body was created in 2020 by the European Commission to unit digital investigators, scientists, and other organisations in the framework of its strategy to fight disinformation. Its network covers all of the EU via 14 hubs.
