Successfully covering complex issues requires more than just repeating what other media said before. But general advice such as to adapt the topic to your local context and tell an interesting story about real people are easier said than done.
Therefore, as of August 2021, n-ost supports twelve independent online media from Ukraine, Georgia, Belarus and Armenia in tackling these challenges. Please meet: Our new project Online journalism, in-depth!
Over the course of three and a half years project participants will be provided the opportunity to develop a specific journalistic profile on either the topic of climate change, health policy or information society. Our mediapartners will receive funding to produce three large, in-depth publications.

We believe that close cooperation between journalists and experts will improve the quality of reporting and public debate on important international issues. Therefore, in the long run, the project aims at creating three sustainable networks encompassing journalists, experts and civil society actors – working to the benefit of all: While journalists will gain access to reliable quality information, experts and activists improve their chances to inform public debate and to impact political decision-making.
