Proud to join the Information Integrity Workshop with @OFWAFRICA, @TheMFWA, @Code4Africa & @Wikimedia. We explored how policy gaps fuel misinformation and why clear, inclusive laws are vital to protect truth and empower citizens.

[Open Foundation West Africa @OFWAFRICA]

We convened media and CSO representatives for our Information Integrity Workshop. We explored fact-checking, AI-generated content verification & policy insights on the 2025 Misinformation and Disinformation Bill.
