Empowering local democracies through community-driven news reporting

In today's digital age, the CORRECTIV.StartHub stands as a beacon for innovative journalism that aims to reach and engage those who have been overlooked by traditional media. This organisation, a pioneer in local media, is dedicated to fostering democracy in action through community-centered media projects.

The CORRECTIV.StartHub is a hub for those who wish to start their own community-oriented media project locally. By utilising digital media, they strive to expand the pillar of independent community media, making it an essential component of the future information system.

Their journalism is people-focused, starting with the questions and problems of the people. They create constructive journalism that puts solutions at the centre, focusing on the public interest and local democracy. This approach is a key focus for their work, as they prioritise the growth of local media in areas where traditional media has died out.

In addition to their journalistic endeavours, the CORRECTIV.StartHub also serves as a training ground for individuals who want to start their own locally oriented media projects. They provide support, tools, and resources to help these aspiring journalists get their projects off the ground.

Moreover, the CORRECTIV.StartHub fosters real-life encounters and open spaces for discussions. They create opportunities for people to come together, share ideas, and collaborate on projects that matter to their communities.

The CORRECTIV.StartHub is not just a journalistic organisation; they are social entrepreneurs, seeking innovative solutions for journalism in neighbourhoods. Their business models are financially sustainable and community-oriented, ensuring that their work continues to benefit the people they serve.
