iMEdD: Supporting Excellence in Journalism - Stavros Niarchos Foundation

In a scene where there is a large illuminated screen that reads WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THE FAR-RIGHT, BUT HOW? six people sit in a panel and talk while the audience below watches them.

Recognizing the challenges faced in recent years by the media sector, especially in Greece, we joined iMEdD founding members Anna-Kynthia Bousdoukou and Stratis Trilikis in envisioning an independent nonprofit organization to promote and strengthen transparency, credibility, independence, and excellence in journalism.

Established in 2018 with exclusive support from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF), iMEdD (incubator for Media Education and Development) is a nonprofit that seeks to build a powerful community of independent media professionals in a welcoming space that promotes international collaboration and the development of new ideas and ventures.

Democratic values all around us are being challenged and diluted every day, by many and for various reasons. Journalism, and the media at large, is a core pillar of democracy.
