Over 1,000 newsrooms across the world are expected to come together online on World News Day to “build understanding and defend our truth-tellers.” Led by the World Editors Forum of WAN-IFRA, Project Kontinuum (founded by Branko Brkic of the Daily Maverick), and the Canadian Journalism Foundation, World News Day unites hundreds of newsrooms each year in a shared mission: to show how journalism makes a difference, especially in the lives of those who rely on it most. In 2024, over 800 newsrooms from across the globe took part. This year, participating outlets will again receive free campaign materials – including social videos, digital and print ads, and op-eds, to help them spotlight their journalism and its public value.

 

“Journalism is under pressure – from disinformation, declining revenues, and attacks on press freedom – but it remains a vital force for truth and accountability,” said Branko Brkic, Founder of Project Kontinuum, creator of this year’s campaign. “In a world flooded with falsehoods, professional newsrooms are among the last lines of defence for information integrity. World News Day is a chance for journalists everywhere to stand together and say: this work matters.” News organizations interested in participating should contact Cherilyn Ireton, Executive Director, World Editors Forum, at cherilyn.ireton@wan-ifra.org, or Branko Brkic at branko@projectkontinuum.org. For more information please visit: https://worldnewsday.org
