    Spain and the UN against climate disinformation

    On the occasion of Earth Day, we want to highlight the Climate Verified program launched by the UN in collaboration with the Purpose organization and the Tiktok platform.

    Spain has just joined the initiative, already underway in the United Arab Emirates and Brazil.

    The program consists of a network of climate messengers made up of scientists, activists and climate communicators to, on the one hand, dismantle the hoaxes that go viral on digital platforms and, on the other, provide quality information on environmental issues through the platform. Tiktok, you can locate their posts on tiktok with the hashtags #Agentedeverificado #verifiedchampions and #ClimateAction

    Exhibition: Soy tú, eres yo

    Social Library, in which the Spanish Committee of UNHCR brings us closer to the reality of six refugees.

    Currently, the number of refugees and displaced people who have had to leave their homes to flee violence and persecution is constantly increasing. Who are they, where do they come from and where are they going? What are their stories?

    We invite you to take a journey to meet Amina, Moheyman, Florance, Kamal, Tateh and Maritza. Listen to their voices and reconstruct their experiences through the objects that have marked their journey.

    The installation is linked to a digital piece where you will find these and other stories: https://soytueresyo.eacnur.org/site

    If you want to delve deeper into the topic of refugees, there are books and journals in the library to help you.
