The Journalism Value Project

The Journalism Value Project supported European public-interest media in strengthening their financial sustainability by better monetising the value they provide to society. It offered an overview of European not-for-profit media, a podcast series of 25 episodes sharing experiences, and a whitepaper to reignite debate on the future of independent media in Europe.

The project ran until April 30, 2025.
