Objective:

Objective

The European Digital Media Observatory (EDMO) has been created with the aim of supporting an independent multidisciplinary community to tackle the phenomenon of disinformation. EDMO is composed of the regional hubs and a central platform and governance structure which supports and coordinates them.

The objective of this topic is to finance the work of independent regional hubs for analysis of digital media ecosystems in order to ensure the coverage of geographical areas covered by the EDMO hubs for which the funding is ending at the end of 2024 and in 2025.

A hub involves organisations active in one or several Member State(s), that will provide specific knowledge of local information environments so as to strengthen the detection and analysis of disinformation campaigns, improve public awareness, and design effective responses relevant for national audiences. The activities of the hubs are carried out in full independence from third-party entities including public authorities.

Hubs will cover more than one Member State with similar media ecosystems within an EU region.

Scope:

Scope

Building on previous work done by the existing hubs, in order to comply with these objectives, the EDMO hubs will:

  • Actively participate in the governance of EDMO and the reinforcement of the EDMO network as well as contribute to the joint across-hubs projects.
  • Detect, fact-check and disclose harmful disinformation campaigns, as well as conduct research on the impact of disinformation campaigns and tailor-made media literacy campaigns within their territory and/or linguistic area.
  • Support the monitoring of online platforms’ policies and implementation of the Code of Practice on Disinformation in their territory and/or linguistic area and provide insight about the (dis)information landscape of the territory/linguistic area covered.
  • Support researchers’ endeavours regarding obtaining more access to platforms’ data and carry out research applying data-science methods.
  • Pull together and foster the growth of a regional multidisciplinary independent community detecting and analysing disinformation campaigns.
  • Communicate through various channels (e.g. traditional and online media outlets, podcasts, social media etc.) and carry out communication campaigns.
