    Description

    The U.S. Mission to Cambodia is inviting proposals for a grant aimed at developing and overseeing workshops to combat the spread of misinformation and disinformation in Cambodia. The initiative focuses on training Cambodian youth in four key areas: Siem Reap, Battambang, Sihanoukville, and Phnom Penh, with the goal of enhancing media literacy and encouraging critical evaluation of information shared online, particularly on social media platforms like Facebook. This program is crucial for fostering respect for human rights and freedom of expression by empowering participants to "Stop, Reflect, and Verify" before disseminating information. Interested applicants, including registered not-for-profit organizations and educational institutions, can apply for funding up to $20,000, with a deadline for submissions set for September 14, 2022. For further inquiries, contact Amparo Garcia at PASExchanges@state.gov or visit the additional information link provided.
