Empowering the Next Generation of Informed Voters

Future Proof is an exciting project for the 2026 Holyrood elections with six young ‘citizen journalists’ backed by The Scottish Youth Film Foundation (SYFF) in partnership with leading UK disinformation charity, Full Fact.  Future Proof - looking for truth and honesty in politics - will publish stories and guides on digital and social media on the impact of AI fueled dis/misinformation on the key election issues and help young voters take informed decisions about their future and how to be positive global citizens. 

The Future of Scotland: Unfiltered. Unbiased. Unmissable.

The Conversation Continues

We've created a Youth Communications Manifesto, outlining a new approach to engaging with young people.

This is based on our research, discussions and reflections during Future Proof, and you can read it below:

Our Integrity

We adhere to the highest standards of truth-seeking, ensuring every claim or fact is cross-referenced with verified data sets and non-partisan sources.

Transparency

Tell the truth as accurately as we can: verify every fact, image, video, and claim before publishing.

Sourcing

Use multiple credible sources and clearly explain where our information comes from

Diversity of Thought

Give people fair representation by including a range of voices and perspectives, especially those usually unheard.
