Faktograf

Faktograf is an independent Croatian digital media outlet dedicated to fact-checking, debunking misinformation, and promoting media literacy. Founded in 2015, the platform was created to provide citizens with reliable, evidence-based verification of claims circulating in the public sphere, particularly in politics, media, and social discourse. The newsroom focuses on verifying public statements, monitoring disinformation campaigns, analyzing news coverage, and providing context to political, social, and economic developments. Its work includes investigative reports, accessible fact-check articles, and explanatory content designed to clarify complex issues for the public. A defining feature of Faktograf is its commitment to transparency and methodology. The outlet publishes detailed explanations of its verification processes and engages with readers to promote critical thinking and informed discussion. This approach strengthens public trust and encourages civic participation in assessing and understanding information. Funded primarily through grants and partnerships, Faktograf operates independently of political and commercial pressures. This model enables the platform to maintain rigorous standards, produce reliable fact-checking, and provide Croatian citizens, educators, researchers, and civil society with tools to navigate a complex information landscape
