Published purpose
This project aims to respond to the unrest and the escalation of violence caused by disinformation leading up to and following the 2020 Myanmar general election. The proposed initiative will engage with media in Myanmar, increasing their awareness of effective information and rumour management systems to mitigate election violence and misinformation. It will also build community resilience against violence and misinformation in diverse communities by enhancing the skills, knowledge and capacities of youth, civil society, women and media in the four states Rakhine, Shan, Kachin and Kayah.
