The Internet, newspapers, television and other sources provide us all around the clock a huge amount of diverse information. Within a few moments, while surfing the Internet or turning on the TV, we can learn about what is that a celebrity had this day for breakfast and find out about the status of military conflict in another part of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, many of the information we receive is false. The groups most susceptible to falling for fake news are seniors and youth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>About the project Check Fake!<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The Youth Exchange<strong> Check Fake!<\/strong> was organized in Slovakia and engaged 36 participants from 6 different countries &#8211; Finland, Belgium, Turkey, Greece, Ukraine, and Slovakia.
