# Fact-checking

### Global Conflict Monitor

This tool, created by Brazilian [**Núcleo Jornalismo**](https://www.nucleo.jor.br/)**,** an initiative that covers the impact of social networks on people's lives, "monitors [a curated list of accounts on Twitter](https://www.nucleo.jor.br/gcm/) in order to increase discovery of reliable, actionable social media information about the war in Ukraine in 2022. By having a curated list, the tool helps to filter out the noise of disinformation, misinformation, memes and plagiarism surrounding the conflict."

Núcleo has its own curated list, and also relies on lists by [**GFMD**](https://gfmd.info/), [**Nieman Lab,**](https://www.niemanlab.org/2022/02/follow-war-ukraine/) and the following Twitter lists: [**Russia-Ukraine**](https://twitter.com/i/lists/1496689613372596228), by Cristina Tardáguila and [**Ukraine Women Journalists**](https://twitter.com/i/lists/1496741011808264193) by #WomenInJournalism.

### Map of fact-checking initiatives in Europe

The [**European Digital Media Observatory**](https://edmo.eu/) (EDMO) "brings together fact-checkers, media literacy experts, and academic researchers to understand and analyse disinformation, in collaboration with media organisations, online platforms and media literacy practitioners."

EDMO has established a task force on disinformation about the war in Ukraine focusing on EU and EEA countries, as well as the western Balkans, "collecting and sorting relevant material covering various aspects such as fact-checking, investigations, rapid analysis, and research on disinformation campaigns, as well as specific media literacy initiatives."
