Organisations looking to join the EFCSN need to undergo an assessment to verify their compliance with the Code of Standards. This involves filling out an application form, as detailed here, that will be evaluated by two external assessors. The assessors will be experts in the fields of disinformation and/or journalism, as well as in the country or region in which your organisation works. The EFCSN’s Governance Body will review the assessments and make a final decision on membership.
Read more about the application process here.
