Resilience Reports
When the coronavirus pandemic emerged in early 2020, the European Journalism Centre in partnership with the Evens Foundation launched Resilience Reports, a series of studies investigating how news organisations across Europe dealt with the impact of the health emergency.
The series wished to address how independent organisations adapted their operations and business strategies to the new and challenging reality. The project wanted to look into the approach of media organisations towards sustainable practices in a moment of extreme hardship, when the drop of advertising and canonical revenue systems had greatly affected their activities. Moreover, in a period connoted by extreme disinformation, journalists were subject to implacable demand for reliable (mainly sectorial) information putting them under extraordinary pressures and stresses.
The initiative targeted 24 innovative newsrooms – across 19 different European countries – operating in various areas including fact-checking, investigative and local journalism. The project was made possible through the willing collaboration of media professionals working at the organisations involved, ranging from editors, membership managers, directors and audience engagement leads.
A final summary report will be published in 2021.
Participating organisations: Bivol (Bulgaria), gal-dem (UK), Heidi.news (Switzerland), Cenzolovka (Serbia), OKO.press (Poland), Hromadske Radio (Ukraine), Are We Europe (Belgium), Buletin de București (Romania), Koncentrat (Denmark), Átlátszó (Hungary), Maldita.es (Spain), Istinomer (Serbia), Apache (Belgium), Faktograf (Hungary), Solomon (Greece), The Local (Sweden), Dublin Inquirer (Ireland), Nanook (France), Mediacités (France), Mérece (Hungary), eldiario.es (Spain), Reporter Magazin (Czech Republic), Radio ARA (Luxembourg), Teyit (Turkey).
