Constructive Journalism Project Competitors

The Solutions Journalism Network is an independent, non-profit organization working to support and spread the practice of solutions journalism: rigorous and compelling reporting on responses to social problems. The Solutions Journalism Network is driving this practice change in several ways: 1. LEARNING PLATFORM: Our website is the go-to source for tools on the practice of solutions journalism. We offer guidebooks, checklists, and case studies—all for free. 2. JOURNALISM DEVELOPMENT: We’re working with dozens of the nation’s leading news organizations to build the practice of solutions journalism in newsrooms. We provide training and story coaching, connect journalists with data providers, and offer modest project funding. 3. COMMUNITY: SJN’s emerging network offers journalists and news organizations a platform for shared learning and collaboration, and in-person events offering professional development, connections, and celebration for journalists interested in doing solutions journalism.

When much of the media is full of doom and gloom, instead Positive News is the world’s first media organisation dedicated to reporting on what’s going right. Online and in print, we publish quality, independent journalism about progress and possibility. We are pioneers of ‘constructive journalism’ – an emerging approach in the media towards rigorous and relevant reporting that is focused on solutions. As a magazine and a movement, we are changing the news for good.

The Trust Project is an international consortium of news organizations collaborating to use transparency to build a more trustworthy and trusted press. Search engines and social media platforms, which have become important news distributors, are participating as well. Founded by award-winning journalist Sally Lehrman, we are a nonpartisan non-profit. We apply a user-centered design process. Based on dozens of in-depth interviews with a diverse spectrum of public voices, news executives involved in the Trust Project identified and designed a system of 8 Trust Indicators®, or disclosures about the news outlet, producer, and commitments behind a story, to make it easy for the public to choose integrity-based news. Digital platforms such as Google, Meta and Bing use the Trust Indicators to surface quality news to their users. The materials produced by our collaboration are available to all reputable news companies that apply to participate and agree to abide by the group’s commitments and Trust Protocol.
