The TAQASI Project is a 6-month project that looks to provide targeted training for Jordanian journalists on identifying fake news, particularly content generated by Russian media outlets. In implementing this project, TAQASI is expected to result in strengthened capabilities among journalists to detect, identify, fact-check, and verify fake news as well as the competence to raise public awareness on fake news disseminated on and by Russia in a way that avoids adverse consequences.
The project is implemented by MENAACTION, under a grant by the US Department of State, through the US Embassy in Amman.
