Teen Fact-Checking Network Scholarship

Teen Fact-Checking Network (TFCN) is a virtual newsroom made up of middle and high school students who use social networks to debunk viral misinformation and share media literacy tips. Run successfully in the United States by MediaWise for over 4 years, the TFCN Fellowship now expands to Spain thanks to a partnership between MediaWise, Verificat and MWCapital.

In this initiative, we select young people with a critical spirit to be part of an online newsroom dedicated to debunking internet hoaxes. In collaboration with journalists from Verificat, the first fact-checking organization in Catalonia, we investigate false or misleading content on social networks and produce videos for Instagram and TikTok to spread truthful and quality information.

The second call for applications is already underway! If you want to be part of this online newsroom, this is your chance, submit your application before March 13 for a chance to be one of the 10 selected!
