Resumo:Trust is the foundation on which democracy is built. Not coincidentally, it is the main victim of attacks by disinformation merchants bent on undermining the electoral process and the democratic environment. In an environment of great dissemination of disinformation against the electoral process and the institutions involved, the Brazilian Electoral Justice has built a bold confrontational program aimed at tackling the effects of informational disorder on its democratic process. This article details the initiatives adopted by the TSE and its partnerships with digital platforms and civil society to guarantee transparency and to build trust and integrity in electoral processes in Brazil.
