Journalism
The Open Society Foundations recognize that independent journalism serves as a check on abuses of power and corruption, and fuels and informs public debates and critical thinking in societies.
We work with partners and grantees across the world to support and advance freedom of expression so journalism flourishes and media outlets can provide quality information that affects people’s lives in a fundamental way.
We support independent journalism that seeks to innovate and remain relevant, effective, and sustainable in a rapidly changing environment where information is abundant, but attention and meaningful engagement are scarce.
Our Program on Independent Journalism supports both global freedom of expression organizations, such as the Committee to Protect Journalists, Reporters Without Borders, and IFEX, as well as several regional and national press freedom organizations.
We also support independent investigative reporting outlets as well as international networks of investigative journalists, such as the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, which produced the famous Panama and Paradise Papers, and Freedom Voices, which seeks to investigate assassinations of journalists and tell the stories they could not tell.
