The FactShala is a news and information literacy initiative launched by Internews in collaboration with DataLEADS and with support from Google.org and the Google News Initiative. The goal is to empower communities across India by building a strong and credible ecosystem of information by helping people to sift facts from the sea of online misinformation. The initiative will help people understand better the nature and characteristics of content published online.
The focus is not only on misinformation generated by conventional and social media but also on educating people about understanding media, analyzing content and equipping them with the skills needed to consume information critically. Help adults in non-metro cities and villages of India learn how to sift facts from the sea of online misinformation and help them understand better the nature and characteristics of content published online.
