About us

In our vision the essence of journalism is to provide people with reliable, trustworthy and verified information so they can make the best possible decisions about their lives, communities, governments, and societies. We exist to help them do that. Journalism plays a key role in defending freedom of expression, making governments and societies function better and enabling strong democracies. Press freedom and the free flow of information are important in a time when evidence-based reporting is under pressure.
Our mission is to strengthen the resilience of European journalism and progressive media by connecting journalists and media to new ideas, skills and support schemes. The EJC nurtures communities, producing resources and training affordable or for free, and provides grants and skills development.
Our aim is that every journalist and news organisation in Europe shall benefit from an EJC programme or initiative.
