论文摘要
优质的人道主义信息对于有效，有效和协调的人道主义反应至关重要。但是，在危机期间，人道主义响应者很少能访问质量信息，以便及时提供急需的救济。获得和评估人道主义信息的传统方法通常会面临挑战，例如可访问性不佳，来源有限以及监视和文档的能力。用户从在线社交平台产生的内容的最新出现解决了传统方法面临的一些挑战，但它也引起了许多影响公众和人道主义参与者的信息质量和验证性的担忧。本文概述了文献中的信息验证方法，并回顾了新闻机构和人道主义组织使用的信息收集以及验证实践和工具。调查了人道主义和人权性质的二十个众包信息项目。我们讨论发现并为将来的研究提供建议。
Quality humanitarian information is essential for efficient, effective and coordinated humanitarian responses. During crises, however, humanitarian responders rarely have access to quality information in order to provide the much-needed relief in a timely fashion. Traditional methods for the acquisition and evaluation of humanitarian information typically confront challenges such as poor accessibility, limited sources, and the capacity of monitoring and documentation. The more recent emergence of user generated content from online social platforms addressed some challenges faced by traditional methods, but it also raised many concerns regarding information quality and verifiability, among others, that affect both the public and humanitarian actors. This paper provides an overview of information verification methods in literature and reviews information collection and verification practices and tools used by news agencies and humanitarian organizations. Twenty crowd-sourced information projects in humanitarian and human rights nature are surveyed. We discuss the findings and give recommendations for future research.
