During the enriching visit of our Brazilian experts, Natália Leal, Maria Paula Riva and Mariana Valente several insights and challenges about the Brazilian online misogyny background were discussed. The highlight was the two expert talks on online misogyny during the Brazilian election campaign. Natàlia Leal spoke about the great input on the fact-checking work by Agencia Lupa, the first independent fact-checking organisation in Brazil, to fight misinformation during the Brazilian election campaign. Mariana Valente gave a very insightful talk on gender-based violence against female politicians in Brazil and the important work of the multidisciplinary research centre InternetLab.
