Date: 2024-04-08

As we approach numerous upcoming elections this year, where disinformation, hate speech, and other potentially harmful content present a prominent challenge and digital tools play a key role in countering information pollution, the session discusses key lessons learned from iVerify and eMonitor+ implementations, tools that have significantly supported several UNDP country offices and their national partners in countering disinformation, hate speech and harmful online practices.

In this event we introduce the Digital Kit for Democracy, present the functions and features of iVerify and eMonitor+, and share lessons learned from recent implementations: iVerify in Sierra Leone for fact-checking and eMonitor+ in Peru for identifying and responding to hate speech.
