Hate speech and misinformation are creating real-world harm for displaced people
Abstract
UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, is concerned that the spread of misinformation, hate speech and deepfakes is exacerbating and inciting real-world harm to refugees and humanitarians. Artificial Intelligence is intensifying these risks to the integrity of our information ecosystem and undermining trust, but it can also be part of the solution if managed in the right way.
