Two new entries on our news page:
The University of Warsaw's science portal published an English overview of SAUFEX by Dr Piotr Sosnowski covering FIMI mapping across EU states and AI-assisted analysis of disinformation narratives.
Polish FM Sikorski has appointed Tomasz Chłoń (longstanding SAUFEX collaborator) as plenipotentiary for countering international disinformation.

Our partner DROG put out another a new game with GLOBSEC and Google.org called Rig It. You build a political campaign and see how emotion and AI can be used to shape opinions and influence democracy.
It follows the same idea behind their other games like Bad News (which has had over 15 million players in 50+ countries), Go Viral!, and Harmony Square.

Our partner DROG Group built a tool we think is pretty cool.
TactCheck is basically a fake social media platform running on Mastodon. Researchers can use it to study how disinformation actually spreads without having to deal with real platforms. You can load scenarios, replay real Twitter/X data, spin up AI bots, even simulate a Facebook-like environment.
Worth a look if you work in research, policy, or media literacy: tactcheck.com
Our partner Faktabaari (FactBar) is working on a new EU-funded project called PRiME (Primary Information and Media Education). The goal is to help primary school kids aged 6-12 develop media literacy skills that actually make sense in the age of AI.
The project brings together five countries (Belgium, Spain, Austria, Germany, and Finland) and is funded by the EU's Creative Europe programme.
