Factchequeado is an initiative led by Maldita.es, the first Spanish non-profit fact-checking media created to combat misinformation in Spain, and Chequeado, the first fact-checking organization in the Global South, to create a Latino community to counter Spanish-language misinformation in the United States, where the project is led by Tamoa Calzadilla from Miami, Florida.
