WITNESS launches the Fortifying Community Truth project to build resilience within underrepresented communities to defend their truth against media manipulation, including AI-enabled tactics.

This project began with the convening of seventeen (17) inception cohort members from West and Central Africa for an intensive workshop in Abuja, Nigeria, from 29 - 31 May 2024. During the workshop, they were introduced to crucial skills in digital verification, open-source investigation, archiving practices, and data analysis, empowering them to defend human rights
and strengthen democracy.
