Intensified discussions about possible peace deals between Ukraine and Russia make one question urgent: what does "peace" under Russian control actually look like? Ukraine's occupied territories answer that question. They also risk becoming instruments of political bargaining.

1/2 Introducing "Digging More Deeply": a new climate investigations project by n-ost.

Reporting on climate change in Eastern Partnership countries poses unique challenges on journalists, as access to data and resources for investigative reporting is often limited.

“The classification affects a network of journalists. The aim is to manipulate reporting within Europe.”

1/2 Introducing "The Climate Content Pool": a new environmental reporting project by n-ost

While Russian attacks target Ukraine's energy infrastructure, the country advances green recovery initiatives. Climate journalism can document the challenge.

Disinformation and big tech power challenge democracy. Journalism investigates and reveals. Since 2006, n-ost has linked 500+ journalists across Europe, strengthening media resilience. Our managing director Hanno Gundert shared this mission with European Journalism Fellowship fellows in Berlin.

Great conversation at the @n-ost.bsky.social about the media landscape and coverage of Srebrenica genocide in the last 30 years. Valuable input from @adicerimagic.bsky.social and @alexmiladinovic.bsky.social, with their perspectives and experience in journalism and policy analysis.

Some stories are painful to tell, yet too important to forget.
Nearly 30 years after Srebrenica, media across conflict lines tell vastly different stories about the same events.

Join our Kitchen Talk on contested memory & journalism's role in shaping how societies remember their past.
