Brazilian Association of Investigative Journalism

Coordinated by Abraji, the Comprova Project is a collaborative fact-checking initiative that brings together the Brazilian media to combat disinformation. Created in 2018 and developed in Brazil by First Draft and the Shorenstein Center of the Harvard Kennedy School, Comprova's main goal is to spot and weaken the manipulation techniques and dissemination of misleading content that appear on hyper-partisan websites, messaging apps and social media.

The project won the Press Freedom Award 2021 from the National Association of Newspapers. In 2023, Comprova published 220 reports and began producing video verifications to expand the reach of the reports on the main social media platforms.
