ABOUT US

The Sala de Articulação contra Desinformação (SAD) brings together civil society organisations, including academic research groups, concerned about the social impacts of online mis- and disinformation. It is a space for discussion and joint action, whose principle is to connect digital, human rights and socio-environmental issues.

SAD’s aim is to debate the current scenario, draw up studies and articulate actions that promote the construction of digital spaces structured around democratic values and increasingly safe for citizens. To this end, it monitors the evolution of damaging tactics and narratives constructed in the context of disinformation in Brazil. It also monitors the actions implemented by digital platforms and the competent authorities, such as governments and the Electoral Justice.

SAD has focused its efforts on four main axes: electoral integrity, political adverts, gender and racial political violence, and socio-environmental negationism. It also monitors issues related to Internet governance and electoral governance.
