More focus areas

We are always reacting to current issues but there are also some topics which have been recurrent themes in our work. Here are a few.

Journalism in Ukraine

From safety risks to source validation, journalists working in Ukraine amidst the war grapple with formidable challenges. Supporting them is a key cornerstone of democratic Europe.

Climate Journalism

The climate crisis affects each and every aspect of life. So does the economic and societal transformation needed to react to it. We enable journalists to incorporate it into their everyday reporting.

Documentary Photography

Images are playing an increasingly important role in the perception of journalistic topics. We develope photographic projects and work with photographers from all over Europe.

Foreign Reporting

The world fades away, when media lack the resources to report from their neighboring states or correspondents have to cover whole continents. We lobby for it.

Exile & Decolonisation

Deeply rooted power structures and authoritarian aggression fuel repression, conflict and forced migration. We create safe spaces allowing journalists in exile and elsewhere to reflect and deconstruct colonial narratives.

Feminism & LGBTIQ+

We want to empower journalists to unlock authentic narratives and promote diverse representation within the media content through a queer feminist perspective.

European Public Spheres

Domestic issues dominate the media coverage, but European journalism only works if we widen the lens beyond the national.

Investigative Journalism

In our interconnected world, investigate journalism has to transcend borders. We help connect the dots on issues that resonate globally.

(Dis)Information

Disinformation is a key challenge for journalism all over the world. We support journaliststs to cope with it.
