IDMO – Italian Digital Media Observatory is part of the European Digital Media Observatory, an organization established under the initiative of the European Commission with the aim of becoming a reference point for the analysis and counteraction of disinformation.
EDMO has created a network of eight national hubs that study the impact of disinformation on societies and promote positive practices in the use of digital media through e-literacy and fact-checking.
The Italian hub, IDMO, is composed of Luiss Guido Carli University, RAI (Italian Broadcasting Corporation), TIM (Telecom Italia), GEDI Group, University of Rome Tor Vergata, T6 Ecosystems, NewsGuard, and Pagella Politica.
The consortium’s work is coordinated by Luiss Data Lab, a research center of Luiss Guido Carli University directed by Gianni Riotta.
In addition to its partners, IDMO benefits from a wide network of supporters and collaborators, including the Alliance of Democracies Foundation, Corriere della Sera (Italian newspaper), Enel Foundation, Reporters Sans Frontières (Reporters Without Borders), and The European House Ambrosetti.
