Did you hear that loud and clear. Let's build a culture of disseminating and propagating only information that has been duly confirmed and attested to be true beyond every reasonable doubt. At Factcheck Initiative this is our everyday objective.

Every news, statistic, data, information must be worth it before being propagated. We also organise training sessions to enlighten the general public on how to detect false information and not peddle distorted and mangled information.
