AletheiaFact.org

AletheiaFact.org is a crowd-sourced fact-checking movement and platform that imagines a society where everyone can have free access and engage with truthful and credible information with autonomy. We want to stimulate educommunication as a way to combat fake news and promote the autonomy of individuals, making them active subjects in media processes by providing the infrastructure and accessible interfaces for people to learn and contribute with fact-checking, without losing credibility of the information. As a platform, AletheiaFact.org is inspired by Wikipedia [1] and demagog.cz [2] to become the central data source and database for claim reviews generating insights into how misinformation is spread and by whom supported by governance tools guided by its community to provide high-quality reviews and provide the infrastructure for trustworthy and credible information. In the short term, AletheiaFact.org will become a technological tool-set that will help fact-checkers and journalists working to protect democracy and the credibility of information during the Brazilian presidential elections. As part of this talk, we want to introduce the work done and the planned roadmap to achieve the vision and mission of the movement.
