crowdfunding for independent journalism: Correctiv goes new ways

journalism faces major challenges, especially in times of political uncertainty. In order to promote social issues and the preservation of democracy, the common good media house Correctiv has launched a crowdfunding campaign. With a target of one million euros on the Startnext platform, the team would like to ensure that their investigative projects can be successfully implemented by the federal election in 2025.

The campaign is not just a financing measure; It also reflects a broader social commitment. In addition to the financing of research and fact checks, the crowdfunding corrective enables educational programs to be offered that strengthen understanding of journalistic work. "Every euro flows directly into democracy-promoting work and the media house of the future," emphasizes the managing director Jeannette Gusko.

The escort action adopt a fact , which is supported by recognized artists, is particularly remarkable. This translation of facts in art illustrates the relevance and vitality of the grievances revealed by Correctiv. Art and journalism meet here and show how important creative forms of expression are in the discussion about democratic topics. This cooperation is essential to establish emotional and social connections.

"Freedom of art and press are the cornerstone of every democracy," says Chiara Jaumann, creative director of the project. With the support of prominent personalities such as Marie Nasemann and Sarah Nuru, the range and the importance of the campaign are also reinforced. This support shows how important it is to stand together for democratic values.

With a clear focus on the imparting of knowledge and education, Correctiv pursues the goal of promoting discussions not only locally, but also in the general public and raising awareness of the importance of independent media. "We see not only a danger in the upcoming challenges, but also an opportunity to bring people together," explains publisher David Schraven.

The crowdfunding campaign is already running, and even if the desired goal is not fully achieved, any support remains valuable. "The commitment of the community is crucial to help us go where it is necessary," continued Gusko.

For all interested parties, more about the details of crowdfunding and supporting artists are available on the Correctiv website. This initiative shows how independent journalism not only serves as a source of information, but also acts as a motor for social discourse. At a time when many people fear for their future, Correctiv relies on facts, cohesion and strong democracy.
