Global Fact 8, the only conference dedicated to fact-checking worldwide, organized by the International Fact-Checking Network at the Poynter Institute.
This year’s Global Fact will take place virtually for the second time after meeting in person for years all around the world in cities such as London, Buenos Aires, Madrid, Rome, and Cape Town. More than 1,000 people attended last year’s first-ever virtual Global Fact. We’re building on last year’s success and bringing together fact-checkers, researchers, industry experts, and big tech teams to address misinformation on a global scale and uphold the integrity of the universal information ecosystem.
This year’s online summit will take place between 20-23, October 2021 at globalfact8.com. Each day of the summit will feature seven hours of forward-thinking sessions to inspire lively discussions surrounding the important role facts play in society.
Admission is free for those interested in attending the general sessions; however, some sessions are exclusive to International Fact-Checking Network’s verified signatory organizations. For more information on the sessions, click here or register.
