    Goals / Remit

    La Fundación Maldita.es es una organización sin ánimo de lucro con sede en España que fomenta la confianza pública luchando contra la desinformación y promoviendo la transparencia a través del periodismo, la educación, la tecnología, la investigación y la acción política. Tenemos tres objetivos principales:

    Monitorizar el discurso político y promover la transparencia en las instituciones públicas y privadas.

    Verificar y luchar contra la desinformación.

    Promover la alfabetización mediática y las herramientas tecnológicas para crear una comunidad consciente que pueda defenderse de la desinformación y se encuentre en todas las áreas.

    Main EU files targeted

    Estamos interesados en todas las propuestas o políticas relacionadas con la lucha contra la desinformación en el discurso público, incluyendo: regulación de la libertad de expresión y las responsabilidades en el ámbito digital, esfuerzos de alfabetización mediática, campañas organizadas de influencia a través de la desinformación, regulación del contenido dañino en redes y otros soportes de comunicación, etc.

    Actualmente, las principales propuestas legislativas o políticas de la UE que son objeto de nuestro interés son la European Media Freedom Act, la AI Act, y la implementación de la Digital Services Act, la Digital Markets Act y el European Democracy Action Plan.

    Communication activities

    Cada mes publicamos una newsletter sobre desinformación y políticas públicas. También hacemos informes puntuales de evaluación de la implementación de aspectos puntuales de la Digital Services Act. Firmamos además artículos de opinión en diferentes medios. En ocasiones organizamos eventos sobre desinformación para concienciar a la ciudadanía o para informar sobre investigaciones y desarollo del trabajo de la fundación.

    Meetings

    4 meetings found. Download meetings

    The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

    1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
