Launch of Oii Newsletter in Brazil to Root Out and Fight Climate Disinformation

CAAD partners FALA have just launched The Observatory for Information Integrity – Oii. FALA, experts in climate communication, are tracking and analyzing climate disinformation within the Brazilian context. 

Their monthly newsletter provides crucial insights into the actors, tactics and narratives delaying climate action in the country. 

The inaugural issue covers:

• How two ‘disinformation COP’s held in the Amazon later this year aim to weaken the UNFCCC’s COP30 by casting doubt on Brazil’s leadership role.
• How disinformation actors in the country operate and spread their lies. Spoiler alert: very much like their counterparts across the globe, with a Brazilian twist. 
• What we’re doing to fight back and win this information war – news from the climate information integrity summit, which took place in Brasilia last month.

As the world looks towards Brazil hosting COP30, understanding and effectively countering climate disinformation within the country is of paramount importance. FALA’s work is an invaluable tool for journalists, researchers and policymakers seeking to navigate the complexities of climate communication and build greater information integrity. We strongly encourage you to subscribe in either English or Portuguese to stay informed on this critical issue.
