Can we trust the news on social networks? And how can we verify if news are true or false? Is there the absolute truth? These are some of the questions we want to discuss at our event about fake news.

We have invited Carlos Hernández, Coordinator of Public Policies and Institutional Development of Maldita.es, a website that is dedicated to verify news and warn users about fake news. Carlos will give us tools to detect fake news and advice on how to act on social networks when we get fake news.
