To help journalists report effectively through the haze, and explain the 
“infodemic”, UNESCO is translating its publication “Journalism, Fake 
News & Disinformation” into several languages.

This unique handbook (https://en.unesco.org/fightfakenews) is already in 
seven languages (English, French, Russian, Portuguese, Indonesian, Thai, 
Vietnamese) with 12 more (Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Khmer, Burmese, 
Tetum, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Tajik, Albanian, Bosnian, Macedonian) in the 
pipeline.

UNESCO is particularly interested in hearing from academics and 
collaborators who could voluntarily contribute Farsi, Hindi, Bengali, 
Japanese, Korean, German, kiSwahili and Italian translations, amongst 
others.

They are also looking for people who can help peer review the quality of 
crowd-sourced translations, as well as anyone who can help to promote 
the publication as a knowledge-resource at this key period.

Academics who can step forward will be acknowledged and thanked in the 
language edition concerned. With your help, a difference can be made to 
media’s role in this crisis.

If you can donate time, please contact Sara Guglielmi <s.guglielmi@unesco.org> indicating availability to support translation, to peer-review a translation, and/or to promote the handbook
