Médianes?
Providing information isn't enough. We also need the resources to produce, fund, and disseminate that information in order to have a real impact. Médianesis the toolkit for media independence: editorial, economic, and technological.
With a media outlet, a studio, and a network, we help media organizations, institutions, and NGOs build sustainable and ethical models that directly serve the public, both in France and across Europe.
