About this project

What we're building.

Newsroom on Wheels — taking journalism to rural communities.

The MCI SDGs Media Van is a Newsroom-on-Wheels concept that brings young journalists alongside community reporters to cover under-reported rural stories aimed at advancing the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Launched in 2023 in partnership with Konrad Adenauer Stiftung, the van turns local reporting into evidence-based solutions journalism — fixing news deserts and elevating community voices.
