Get Involved
When a community of peers works together and learns from each other, journalism becomes more resilient and representative. No matter where you are in your career, we provide opportunities to connect with colleagues, find support, offer guidance, and take part in collective action that strengthens our industry from within.
Share Your Work
Our platform gives community members space to write about projects and case studies, highlight new opportunities, explain how we tell stories with data, and share honest reflections about our profession. If you have work, insights, or experiences to contribute, we want to hear from you.
Community Calls
Every other Thursday, we host open conversations where journalists and community members can share recent work, discuss upcoming events, announce opportunities, and find collaborators for new projects. Think of these gatherings as a live exchange of ideas, where everyone contributes to shaping the agenda and celebrating each other’s achievements.
Build Something Together
Events: We organize participatory conferences and workshops designed for people who want to transform the ways journalism and technology work in their communities. These sessions are hands-on and collaborative, helping participants develop new skills and stronger relationships.
Peer Review: Our peer-review program connects local journalists with colleagues who can help refine data-driven stories and double-check reporting. You can seek guidance on a project or volunteer as a peer coach to support others.
Scholarships: We provide stipends to support participation in events and training opportunities that help journalists grow at the intersection of reporting and technology. We want cost to never be a barrier to professional development.
Collectively Work for Change
Equity in Newsrooms: We are committed to building institutions where newsrooms are inclusive, collaborative, and equitable—places where journalists from all backgrounds truly belong. This is collective work that strengthens journalism for everyone.
Inclusive Events: We encourage event organizers and speakers to create spaces that are accessible and welcoming for historically marginalized communities. Together, we can set standards that ensure diversity and inclusion in every professional setting.
Help Support Our Work
As a community-driven initiative, we depend on the support of members, partners, and sponsors to continue building programs and opportunities. Contributions—whether financial, professional, or through collaboration—help us sustain and expand this work.
