Strengthening local democracy through dedicated community news reporting
In a world where journalism often focuses on problems without offering solutions, a new organization is making waves as a pioneer in local media. CORRECTIV, a group of social entrepreneurs, is dedicated to constructive journalism β a approach that emphasizes solutions over issues.
Their mission is to build a robust new information system, one that is supported by numerous small new media projects and organizations. Independent community media will play a crucial role in this system, providing diverse perspectives and local insights.
CORRECTIV.StartHub serves as a hub for anyone starting their own community-centered media project locally. It offers a platform for sharing solutions, knowledge, tools, and infrastructure, enabling projects to advance faster and open the way for more actors.
The organization's research begins with people's questions and problems, ensuring that the issues that matter most to communities are addressed. This approach prioritizes relationships with people, fostering empathy and understanding.
CORRECTIV's journalism aims to create an empathetic, well-informed, and participatory society. It prioritizes the public interest and the impact of journalism on local democracy. Everyone can contribute to the community-driven newsroom with expertise, networks, time, or money.
The organization also leverages digital media for wider reach and tangible encounters. By focusing on innovative solutions and involving those who have been left out in their research, CORRECTIV is driving change in the journalism landscape.
