Analysis & Insights

We analyze the state of the relationship between the news industry and academic researchers, and strategize ways to improve that relationship - thereby creating news products that better serve the public.

Networking Events

We've organized a number of online and offline gatherings for academics and journalists to gather.- not only to hatch individual collaborations, but to strategize on how we make that happen on a more systemic level.

And More!

This is just the beginning. What we're imagining is a world where data and evidence better inform the practice of journalism, helping to create news products that are sustainable and support a healthy democracy. Are you with us?
