"We are excited to empower the training and development of more fact-checkers in Canada, drawing on our experience in advocating for fact-checking around the world," said IFCN director Angie Drobnic Holan. "We believe fact-checking is a critical part of improving information integrity and public dialogue everywhere."
"Using Poynter's trusted resources, the program will start with a foundational self-directed course on fact-checking. Following this, eight virtual workshops will provide practical training in key areas like verification tools, media literacy, collaboration, audience engagement and financial sustainability."
"In addition to workshops, the IFCN will mentor three to five Canadian fact-checking initiatives through a six-month development track, assisting them in creating sustainable, long-term strategies for their operations."
