The CREDIBLE addendum seeks to explore innovative approaches to the growing influence of disinformation and erosion of democratic norms in Latin America and the Caribbean.
LAC/RSD/DRG seeks concept notes that will focus on rebuilding trust in local information ecosystems, building digital and media literacy, and strengthening local media - with and through youth and youth-serving organizations.
Using new media literacy tools and social norm change approaches with a local focus, CREDIBLE will work to “inoculate” communities against disinformation and promote fact-based discourse and political participation in target communities.
LAC/RSD/DRG seeks approaches that have a learning focus, so that successful approaches can be scaled up, tested, and replicated in other contexts in the LAC region.
Subject to the availability of funds, LAC/RSD/DRG anticipates supporting one new award of up to $5 million for a period of performance of five years.
