Tattle

Tattle is a group of technologists, researchers, journalists and artists. We build tools and datasets to better understand and respond to (mis)information trends on chat apps and regional language social media in India. Our work is geared towards:

- Journalists and fact checkers
- Researchers
- Motivated individuals who wish to do local fact-checking/debunking

The backbone of this project is an archive of content circulating on chat apps and social media; and APIs for multi-lingual and multi-modal search. All the code is open source and licensed under GPL 3.0.

Stanford History Education Group

If young people are not prepared to critically evaluate the information that bombards them online, they are apt to be duped by false claims and misleading arguments. To help teachers address these critical skills, we’ve developed assessments of civic online reasoning—the ability to judge the credibility of digital information about social and political issues.

South Asia Check

South Asia Check is an independent, non-partisan, non-profit initiative by Panos South Asia which aims to promote accuracy and accountability in public debate. We examine statements and claims made by public figures in Nepal and occasionally across South Asia and publish our findings on this site. This is not a finger-pointing exercise, but an attempt to promote transparency, truth and accountability in politics and media in the region.

Panos South Asia is a non-profit media development organization active in South Asia and beyond since 1997.
