Areas of focus
Sustainability of Local Journalism
Local news media informs the public, holds local authority to account and reports on the stories that matter. This is because local journalists care about, belong to, and participate in the communities they serve.
Press Freedom
Freedom of expression is a universal human right. It is not the prerogative of the politician. Nor is it the privilege of the journalist. In their day-to-day work, journalists are simply exercising every citizen’s right to free speech.
AI & IP
The rapid advancement of AI in recent years has caused serious concern over the role it will play in spreading dis and misinformation online and beyond. To combat these dangers, journalism will play as vital a role as ever in combatting the dangers AI poses to our society.
