Who is in the directory?

Networks that are independent with no affiliation to a political party, and observe standards of accuracy, fairness and transparency in their journalism.The Directory of European Journalism Networks is a live, searchable database of journalism networks, collectives, hubs, unions and groups from Europe, focusing on collaborative and crossborder journalism. The directory aims to support and inspire journalists who document stories that span country boundaries or require interdisciplinary teams, by helping them to find each other, connect and work-together. 

Networks that are  structured collaboration between multiple independent journalists or media organizations, who work together – share resources, knowledge, infrastructure – across organizational, geographic, or thematic boundaries to achieve shared goals of journalism

Networks that are global or based in one of the member countries of the Council of Europe or in one of the countries eligible for any strand of the Creative Europe initiative. The collaborations may operate locally, nationally, regionally, or globally.

Networks can take both formal (legal) and semi-formal organizational structure (secretariat, membership, projects) while the editorial independence and autonomy of members remains

On the directory website, you are able to submit your network/group to the listing; search by geography, subject expertise, skills to identify and contact future collaborators; read network profiles and interviews with network coordinators to better understand the scope of collaborative work. 

All network profiles are submitted voluntarily by network managers or by a member of the journalism collective or media group featured.
