Stabilising Rural Journalism
S5 · Intervention 4 of 6

Stabilising Rural Journalism.

Mobile studios and community-based reporting using solutions journalism.

Our approach

How Rural works.

The MCI SDGs Media Van and Karamoja-based desks take journalism to hard-to-reach communities — because stabilising local and rural journalism is how the ecosystem stops leaving whole regions behind.

Stabilising Rural Journalism
Why now

News deserts are spreading. Rural communities are losing the local reporters who once held duty-bearers to account, and the stories that survive get told from far away.

Our solution

Our mobile studio allows young journalists to cover under-reported rural stories using the solutions journalism approach — reporting alongside community reporters rather than over them.
