MediaBridge
how we came together
The Global South
The Global North
We build bridges between media that have important stories to tell and media that are looking for specialised reporting from the field. We do this by facilitating access for even the most remotely located media outlets to collaborate, while elevating stories from underreported regions to global news agendas. We believe that strengthening the global-local connection is the only way to solve crises like COVID-19 that affect all of us and with a collective impact, regardless of our locations.
our Value
What makes Mediabridge unique is that we help locally-based media with intimate, in-depth knowledge of their regions in setting news agendas for global audiences. We also build the capacity of national and regional media to produce investigations that meet international standards.
We create financial support and editorial resources for independent media outlets in the global south and unique access for global newsrooms.
We believe that strengthening the global-local connection is the only way to solve global crises that impact all of us, regardless of our locations.
MediaBridge helped us reach new audiences with our Arabic language stories, in more languages, in different regions and with a larger impact. It also helped us to challenge ourselves to think of how to produce more compelling and powerful stories.
