Curso piloto para jornalistas arranca nos Açores

O primeiro “workshop” sobre desinformação destinado a jornalistas do projeto Iberifier realizou-se em Ponta Delgada, nos Açores, a 10 de maio. A formação, ainda em fase de teste, coube aos investigadores Miguel Crespo e Vítor Tomé.

O curso contempla dois grandes blocos, um teórico, subordinado a temas como a identificação da informação, a certificação internacional de “fact-checkers”, e um prático, que consiste na aplicação de ferramentas que auxiliam na verificação dos materiais propostos.

Coube ao Centro Protocolar de Formação Profissional para Jornalistas, Cenjor, que integra os parceiros do projeto Iberifier, organizar esta sessão de “Literacia Mediática contra Desinformação”, formatada para quatro horas. O curso é gratuito e atribui certificado aos profissionais de comunicação e estudantes de comunicação.
