AI-powered disinformation detection for journalismConPolicy receives funding certificate for new ‘PROVAIDE’ project

As a partner in the collaborative project “PROVAIDE”, ConPolicy staff member Dr Julius Rauber received the funding certificate for our PROVAIDE project on 16 March 2026 during the kick-off event for the BMFTR-funded projects “Trust in Democracy and the State: Identifying and Countering Digital Disinformation”. The project aims to develop an AI-supported tool for detecting disinformation in journalism. The tool analyses the origin, dissemination and patterns of information and supports journalists in evaluating sources. 

The focus is particularly on supporting local journalism through efficient and practical applications. ConPolicy brings its expertise in user and behavioural research in the digital world and works closely with partners from the fields of research and media practice.
