The Loop is a Journalism Value Project podcast, brought to you by Reference, a self-organized network of 26 European independent news outlets, hosted by Arena for Journalism.
We are interviewing the members of this network about key challenges for them, ranging from funding and business models, to community engagement and organizational structures, as we explore what success and sustainability looks like for European independent media today.
On today’s episode, we talk to Joanna Krawczyk, the director of Correctiv.Europe, a network of over 350 European media outlets and journalists.
We will talk about the different ways Correctiv.Europe is helping small local newsrooms and journalists. From sharing impactful data-driven investigations they can use, to capacity-building, fundraising, community building and also networking.
We also address the challenges a growing organization such as Correctiv faces. What are the best practices for onboarding new colleagues? And how can an organization prepare for changes in management?
