Projects

Researchers from the School of Media and Communication and other centres, labs and groups across RMIT are working hard on research and projects to address the social, economic and policy challenges generated by different forms of bad information. The university has established partnerships with industry and community groups to explore issues related to digital media, fact checking, AI and online falsehoods.

The RMIT Information Integrity Hub helps facilitate and share the results of this work while undertaking its own projects, such as the development of new education resources. If you'd like to collaborate with us, please get in touch.
