# Investigating the Far-Right's Russian Ties: A Computational Journalism Project # Meeting Minutes **Participants:** Hamze, Eléonore **Date:** 18/02/2023 **Time:** 13:45 - Paris ## Agenda - Launching test for computational journalism ## Discussion The main idea of the meeting was to find common ground for developing computational journalism and make it more accessible to the public. We discussed the need to choose a subject that we are all passionate about and that is not politically sensitive for the French government. The idea is to make a project that is not only about technology but also about content. After some discussion, we decided to test the idea with a subject that meets all these criteria, which is the extreme right wing in France and their position toward Russia. ## Decisions 1. We will use the following tools for our internal communications: 1. Discord 2. GitHub/Notion/Google Drive for documentation based on Elnore's recommendation. 2. We will draft a paper on what we are ready to do and what we will not do. 3. We will organize a working day in the first week of March. 4. We will create a benchmarking document for the project.
