Our Values

Our work is based on the transformative power of independent journalism—a force capable of supporting democracy and social change. We understand that journalism is not merely a profession; it is a cornerstone of an informed and empowered society.

Central to our approach is a respect for the agency and authenticity of the journalists that we work with. We recognise the impact their work can have on communities, shaping narratives and fostering understanding. We also acknowledge the reciprocal nature of our relationship. It’s not a one-way street where we provide support; rather, it’s an exchange where we stand to learn just as much from them as they do from us.

Our commitment to learning from those on the front lines of journalism and displacement is not just a recognition of their expertise but an active pursuit of a richer, more nuanced understanding of the issues we collectively seek to address.

As we engage with our journalists, we do so with humility, understanding that the true power of our efforts lies in partnership. We don’t impose; we empower. We don’t dictate; we facilitate.
