Get to know the people behind the code and the mission behind our work.
Meedan is launching a collaborative election monitoring and verification project targeting 170 million voters through technology partnerships with more than 25 newsrooms and civic organizations ahead of and during the U.S. 2024 presidential election.
Journalists and fact-checkers will source and verify election-related claims and distribute authoritative information in various languages back to audiences on messaging services.
Participants will also work together to build live feeds of claims, media and fact-checks. Social media content moderation teams and academic researchers will leverage the feeds for local context and amplification of the impact of the participating newsrooms.
Join us to minimize election interference and improve the information ecosystem, nationally and in real time, through coordinated local efforts that use conversational technologies deployed on messaging apps.
