ANTI-FAKE-NEWS VIDEOS IN LOCAL LANGUAGES
TOGO
Created by the Web Observation and Analysis Center (CO@Web),, the TogoCheck has distinguished itself during the coronavirus pandemic by producing videos containing reliable information designed to throttle the many misplaced beliefs and rumours about Covid-19 – such as the claim that intense athletic activity prevents infection. The use of local languages increases TogoCheck’s audience in a country where more than 45% of the population over 15 are illiterate.
