In Israel, these risks are heightened by extensive social media use, repeated state-backed campaigns by adversarial actors, and ongoing conflict since October 2023. The Disinformation Resilience Israel (DRI) project, funded by the European Union, aims to develop a comprehensive response to online misinformation and disinformation in Israel.
The project’s goal is to strengthen the resilience of Israeli society to counter misinformation and disinformation by enhancing the fact-finding capacity of media and civil society organizations, raising public awareness and media literacy, and advancing research. It engages journalists, educators, tech entrepreneurs, activists, and the broader public to foster a more informed, critical, and inclusive information ecosystem.
