Hello all,
My name is Rebekah Larsen, and I'm a current grad student at the University of Cambridge. I'm part of a project researching how to make it easier for citizen witnesses of human rights violations to capture the attention of journalists and human rights defenders, which includes facilitating the verification of social media. More information on the project can be found at the link below.

We are currently surveying the range of online platforms or initiatives already being developed with potential for social media verification, both commercial (e.g., Storyful) and non-profit (e.g., CheckDesk). If anyone can point me towards any other examples, resources, research, etc., it would be much appreciated!
Best, and many thanks,
Rebekah _______________________________________________ The Air-L@listserv.aoir.org mailing list is provided by the Association of Internet Researchers http://aoir.org Subscribe, change options or unsubscribe at: http://listserv.aoir.org/listinfo.cgi/air-l-aoir.org
