IFCN awards GROW 2024 grants to 20 projects from $12M global fund - Poynter
Briefly

"These projects reflect the diverse ways fact-checkers are tackling misinformation," said Angie Drobnic Holan, IFCN director. "Some are harnessing AI, others are expanding into new languages, and many are strengthening existing approaches. With these grants, fact-checkers can expand their reach and make a bigger difference in their communities."
The winners represent 19 countries - including India, Zimbabwe, Portugal, the Philippines, Brazil, and Iraq - and have proposed projects aiming to combat misinformation. Their initiatives focus on empowering local communities, developing sustainable fact-checking methods, and using AI, videos, and social media to reach wider audiences.
