We appreciate #Google organising a #GlobalMILWeek event for the UN in NY, offering resources to prevent #misinformation through search engine. Great chance to emphasise how crucial it is for #UNFieldOffices to be able to access verified information in a variety of languages.

Misinformation about crises facing the planet run rampant online.
Science, solidarity and trust are vital tools in combatting misinformation.
