Let's dream together better!  Exploring wisdom for a world of magical technologies with paleontologist-futurist Michael Garfield.

**If you could do anything with technology, what will you do?**

Humans On The Loop is a transdisciplinary inquiry into the nature of agency in our age of automation.

In our AI-infused society, the gap between imagination and “reality” is smaller than it’s ever been — and now it’s time for humankind to graduate from asking if our dreams are possible to asking how we can dream better. This means cultivating deeper self-awareness, more discipline and humility, and a better metaphysics of technology to help us wield these new superpowers. But decades into a period of rapid information scaling, our grasp of consensus reality and executive function have eroded, causing an epistemic crisis. The wicked problems of this century require coordination at unprecedented scale, but our greatest natural resource — attention — has worn even thinner than our topsoil. How do we regenerate it and restore the faculties we need to be good stewards of this new ecology of minds?

Navigating the challenges that come with new information technologies is a group exercise and demands inherently plural approaches. The right response to tools that amplify our biases is to lean in with curiosity and play, not fearI have spent two decades studying and synthesizing  perspectives on intelligence and technology, innovation, and human-technology co-evolution…as well as testing bleeding-edge creative tools in public, helping cultivate systems literacies for navigating transformation, and fostering a massive network of mentors and collaborators with whom I share a devotion to the cultivation of a healthy Biosphere and Technosphere. As AI comes of age, this is the moment to recruit as many of them as we can into a multimodal public inquiry on wisdom and technology, power and responsibility, holistic practices for cultivating saner futures…and how we can keep Humans On The Loop and at the wheel.

It's going to be a trip — how can we make sure that it’s a good one?

This project exists to foster a renaissance of collaboration and the conditions for new ways of knowing. Its goals include to:

– Boost public discourse at the intersection of technology and wisdom
– Create a legacy of public goods that help train instruments for deepening our understanding
– Prototype and demonstrate experimental tools for thought
– Promote the adoption of reflexive AI for both private and public good
– Help map the emergent ecosystem of changemaking orgs and wise innovators
– Fertilize new narratives and strategies for navigating "wicked problems"
– Bridge domains and cultures in positive-sum collaboration

Newsroom focused on investigative journalism in the public interest.

ProPublica is an independent, non-profit newsroom that produces investigative journalism in the public interest. Our work focuses exclusively on truly important stories, stories with “moral force.” We do this by producing journalism that shines a light on exploitation of the weak by the strong and on the failures of those with power to vindicate the trust placed in them.  Investigative journalism is at risk. Many news organizations have increasingly come to see it as a luxury. Today’s investigative reporters lack resources: Time and budget constraints are curbing the ability of journalists not specifically designated “investigative” to do this kind of reporting in addition to their regular beats. New models are, therefore, necessary to carry forward some of the great work of journalism in the public interest that is such an integral part of self-government, and thus an important bulwark of our democracy.

We help people who see something at work that doesn't seem right. 
Help us to help more concerned people hold power to account.

The Psst... mission is to make it much easier and safer to hold power to account from within by pairing mechanisms for safe reporting with the power and safety of the collective.

The concept of whistleblowing is sacrosanct in democratic societies. But today the act of whistleblowing is both less effective as a means of checking power and more precarious for the individual who comes forward. We as a society must re-think and re-engineer whistleblowing to keep up with a world where society's power brokers in Silicon Valley and Washington, DC face little to no oversight and wield dangerous weapons against individual whistleblowers and journalists.

Psst… addresses the threat to whistleblowing by shifting it from an individual pursuit to ***collective action***. Collective action diffuses the risks associated with whistleblowing while also increasing the impact of disclosures.

The mechanism for doing so is the Psst Safe, a secure repository where insiders can record their concerns, whether big or small, in a repository while protecting their identities. Individual deposits in the repository are vetted for authenticity and analyzed to uncover patterns among deposits. Patterns are used to create complete stories and/or legal cases; depositors are given the option to be part of the collective, always with legal and safety measures in place.

The Psst Safe is backed up by Psst Legal and Psst Story, which are run by veterans in storytelling and legal rights of whistleblowers.

Freedom of the Press Foundation protects, defends, and empowers public-interest journalism in the 21st century.

The Freedom of the Press Foundation is built on the recognition that this kind of transparency journalism — from publishing the Pentagon Papers and exposing Watergate, to uncovering the NSA’s warrantless wiretapping program and CIA secret prisons — doesn’t just happen. It requires dogged work by journalists, and often, the courage of whistleblowers and others who work to ensure that the public actually learns what it has a right to know.  But in a changing economic and technological age, media organizations are increasingly susceptible to corporate or government pressure. This can lead to watered-down or compromised coverage, or worse: censorship.  Increasingly, non-profit media and transparency organizations are emerging as a critical component of the journalism landscape. Leveraging the power of the Internet, these organizations are helping to reinvent and reimagine independent watchdog reporting.  Right now, too many of those organizations are struggling for funding, relying on a few large foundations or competing for donors. Our goal is to broaden the financial base of these types of institutions—both start-ups and established non-profit organizations — by crowd-sourcing funding and making it easy for people to support the best journalism from an array of organizations all in one place.  Using the same networked, collaborative approach, the Freedom of the Press Foundation will also provide support for organizations and individuals that have been unjustly censored or cut off from funding for doing their job as journalists. Given the variety of corporate and government pressures on journalism outlets around the world, the need has never been greater.

Devoted to encouraging political journalists to live up to the highest standards of their profession.

At this point, no one can possibly argue that political journalism has fulfilled its essential missions of creating an informed electorate and holding the powerful accountable.

But our top newsroom leaders have seen no need for a course change. In particular, they have failed to respond to the growing asymmetry between the political parties, even as one became overtly counter-majoritarian, anti-democratic, and unmoored to reality.

Press Watch agitates for change. It encourages reporters to fight disinformation more enthusiastically and effectively, especially when our democracy and people’s lives are at stake. It identifies best practices that others can emulate. It urges the reality-based parts of the industry to  explicitly condemn Fox News and other far-right propaganda outlets as disinformation operations.

Press Watch

Protecting free expression and enabling secure global communication through open source privacy technology.

Long before we knew that it would be called Signal, we knew what we wanted it to be. Instead of teaching the rest of the world cryptography, we wanted to see if we could develop cryptography that worked for the rest of the world. At the time, the industry consensus was largely that encryption and cryptography would remain unusable, but we started Signal with the idea that private communication could be simple.

Since then, we’ve made some progress. We’ve built a service used by millions, and software used by billions. The stories that make it back to us and keep us going are the stories of people discovering each other in moments where they found they could speak freely over Signal, of people falling in love over Signal, of people organizing ambitious plans over Signal. When we ask friends who at their workplace is on Signal and they respond “every C-level executive, and the kitchen staff.” When we receive a subpoena for user data and have nothing to send back but a blank sheet of paper. When we catch that glimpse of “Signal blue” on a metro commuter’s phone and smile.

However, we’ve always wanted to do much more, and our limitations have often been challenging. Over the lifetime of the project, there have only been an average of 2.3 full-time software developers, and the entire Signal team has never been more than 7 people. With three client platforms to develop, a service to build and run, a growing list of integrations to assist with, and millions of users to support, that has often left us wanting.

Even so, Signal has never taken VC funding or sought investment, because we felt that putting profit first would be incompatible with building a sustainable project that put users first. As a consequence, Signal has sometimes suffered from our lack of resources or capacity in the short term, but we’ve always felt those values would lead to the best possible experience in the long term. The Signal Foundation completes our vision of Signal operating as part of a full 501(c)(3).

Originally founded in 1892, The Stanford Daily is the independent, student-run newspaper of Stanford University.

The Corporation
The Stanford Daily newspaper is the primary holding of The Stanford Daily Publishing Corporation. Founded in 1973, The Stanford Daily Publishing Corporation operates as a California non-profit corporation headed by the paper’s editor-in-chief and business manager.

Publishing
The Stanford Daily publishes Monday through Friday during the academic year and maintains a circulation of 4,000 to more than 200 locations on and around the main Stanford main campus. The Daily publishes several special issues every year, including a New Student Orientation issue, a Big Game issue and a Commencement issue.

History of The Daily
The Stanford Daily is the independent, student-run newspaper of Stanford University. The Daily was originally founded as a small pamphlet known as The Daily Palo Alto in 1892 and has been a campus fixture ever since. The Daily strives to serve the Stanford community with relevant, unbiased journalism and provides its editorial, tech and business staffs with unparalleled educational opportunities.

The Daily became independent of Stanford University in 1973 after a years-long clash with the administration spurred in part by disagreements over The Daily’s coverage of anti-Vietnam War protests. In particular, a strongly worded 1970 op-ed in the newspaper entitled “Snitches and Oppression,” penned by Diarmuid McGuire M.A. ’73, drew concerns from University administrators that the school might be held liable for any violence incited by the article. Independence for The Daily was thus a logical conclusion for both sides: The Daily’s disentanglement from the University would make it impossible for the University to attempt to influence reporting through financial withholding or other means, and the University’s disentanglement from The Daily would release it of any potential liability for content published in the newspaper. Thus, in 1973, The Stanford Daily Publishing Corporation was incorporated in Santa Clara County as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Independence wasn’t the only consequence of The Daily’s coverage of campus antiwar protests; the publication also drew national attention when it sued James Zurcher, the chief of the Palo Alto Police Department, following a surprise search of The Daily’s offices for photographic evidence of protestors that the student-journalists and legal counsel deemed to be in violation of the First and Fourth Amendments. After a district court and court of appeals ruled in favor of The Daily, the case, Zurcher v. Stanford Daily, was brought to the Supreme Court of the United States in 1978, with the nation’s highest court ruling 5-3 in favor of Zurcher. The ensuing outcry among journalists and the public led to Congress’s passage of the Privacy Protection Act of 1980, which established the requirement of a subpoena to search newsrooms for unpublished materials.

With the launch of its website in 1995, The Daily became one of the first college newspapers publishing on the Internet. The site is live and continuously updated throughout the year. It features content from the print edition, along with special Web-only content often including live blogs of sporting events and major campus events.

The Daily moved out of its old offices in the Storke Publications Building to its new home at the Lorry I. Lokey Stanford Daily Building in 2007, thanks to the generosity of Lorry I. Lokey ’49 and hundreds of other benefactors, which would not have been possible without the titanic effort of Arthur Charles Hoffman ’73 MBA ’76.

CRNI (a nonprofit organization) fights to protect the human rights and freedom of expression of cartoonists around the world.

CRNI envisions a world where cartoonists are free from persecution and able to use their creativity as a powerful tool for communication.

Our mission: strengthen the interconnectedness of cartoonists around the world, campaign to protect their human rights and defend those threatened as a result of their work.

We believe cartoonists occupy a unique role requiring specialised campaigning and defence.

Cartoonists are among those on the front lines of free speech. We monitor and verify threats in order to provide direct support to those who need it most. 

Our approach is always about the person – we do not distinguish on the basis of career level, fame or reputation, preferred format, platform or methodology.

Our client base ranges from internationally celebrated cartoonists to newcomers persecuted simply for putting a drawing on their social media.

Collaborative working is at the core of what CRNI does. We work with cartoonists’ organisations as well as human rights and freedom of expression NGOs all over the world.

We seek to form lasting relationships with cartoonists and gather support from the wider global community.

We are the only cartoonists' FOE organisation with an explicit human rights-based remit.

We are neither a publishing platform nor an education/pedagogy organisation. We put cartoonists, the people, before cartoons, the artwork, and therefore are more vociferous in our defensive posture than others with a "softer" mission.

Nor are we concerned with what might be termed professional rights, which separates us from existing associations, unions etcetera.

Our independence is vital, and that is safeguarded by support from individual donors.

The Battleground counters false narratives eroding trust in politics and media.

**The Battleground - Europe and Beyond**

The Battleground is a Brussels-based nonprofit, independent media organisation that provides big-picture analysis and reflection on the stories of our time.

Our tagline, 'Focusing on democracy, diversity, and culture in Europe and beyond,' attests to the international nature of our publications. The Battleground’s content highlights geopolitical context and perspective, bridging continents and cultures. It mixes political analysis with social commentary on current affairs.

Established by independent press professionals to break new ground, The Battleground is an innovative media platform that promotes quality, ethical journalism with a personal touch. The ambition is to set a new standard for what journalism ought to do in Europe, if not worldwide.

**Our Mission**

- Fight false narratives
- Defend democracy
- Combat racism
- Expose extremism
- Promote diversity
- Champion ethical journalism

We conceived of The Battleground on Armistice Day 2018, one hundred years after the end of the First World War. We named it The Battleground to reflect the battle for human rights, the rule of law, and fundamental freedoms.

This ambition did not emerge in a vacuum. Since the 2008 financial crisis, Europe has been repeatedly destabilised by conflicts on its eastern periphery, terrorism, refugees, and the far right. Most of the media we’d worked for failed to cover this. The Battleground was our answer.

Our decision has proved correct given the events of the six years since our founding. The Battleground is the only progressive English-language media in the European Union that tackles such topics, and we have a growing global audience to show for it. In 2024, our readership reached 500,000, with almost half located in North America.

Given the far-right political drift in Europe and beyond, staying the course and remaining a voice of reason and tolerance has inspired us like no other project we’ve worked on. Our growth has inspired us to take chances and exceed our expectations.

**Our Work**

The Battleground has published over 2000 long-form articles and 10,000 original photos, launched new branded formats such as our ebook series [Battleground Books](https://thebattleground.eu/book/), and political field recording albums under the [Battleground Sounds](https://thebattleground.eu/sound/) imprint.

Our editors publish regular reviews of films, music, books, and political features and conduct candid conversations about ideas and events on our podcasts. They’re a very inspired bunch at the height of their journalistic careers.

**Our Reach**

The majority of our audience is between 18 and 44. We are heavily read by our peers, journalists, and other EU media, who increasingly follow our lead. We’re regarded as a publisher’s publisher in the Brussels media bubble.

The Battleground is a window onto Europe, the background instead of the foreground, the democratic instead of the populist. Reflecting shared values and diversity - in Europe and beyond.

We break the rules and make new ones. It’s a great place to be.

Center for Books Arts is a nonprofit that promotes active explorations of artistic practices related to the book as an art object.

For nearly 50 years, CBA has supported artists and uplifted the book arts by presenting exhibitions, lectures, readings, and performances; providing opportunities for artists, writers, curators and scholars through residencies, fellowships, publishing, and collecting; and empowering the creation of new book art by providing courses on book art related We are committed to providing a nurturing environment for our community in New York City and beyond to grow and learn together. Our studios and virtual educational programming make accessible the equipment and skills needed for artists and writers to take book production into their own hands, and giving creative voices a tool to self amplify without the need to rely on the gallery model or commercial pressures.

Founded in 1974, Center for Book Arts was the first not-for-profit organization of its kind in the nation, and has since become a model for others around the world, serving as a space for research, education, exhibition, making, and community building.

Center for Book Arts

We collect, preserve, and provide access to community media in order to inspire and celebrate everyone's cultural contributions.

Read/Write Library is the only library of its kind in the world and seeks to be a model for other cities to leverage their own media as a tool to recognize their residents' power and expertise in shaping local histories.

Unlike a traditional read-only library, we encourage contributions, whether community newspapers, self-published chapbooks by young poets, or art books by tenured professors, making cultural participation more transparent and accessible. 

Through our public programs and free browsing hours, growing collection of over 6,000 publications, and open source catalog, the library strives to raise the visibility of work produced by Chicagoans of all backgrounds to reveal connective threads across neighborhoods, generations, and cultures and to encourage inquiry into and ownership of the historical record. 

We recognize the contributions that all community members make to co-creating a city and believe that learning to value them plays a vital role in building empathy, community pride, and the ability to see oneself as a change agent.

We support current affairs causes around the globe - with direct cash straight into the hands of people doing the best work.

Often the only option for people who want to make a difference is either give to a large administration-heavy organisation, or blindly make an online donation to an unknown group or individual which claims to be doing the most immediate and impactful work.

We provide grants to support high-impact and innovative frontline work across various issues, without burdening grassroots organisations/individuals (which are often 100% focused on doing the actual work) with having to produce project grants. 

Our chain-of-trust is created by seeing for ourselves the work, and meeting the people who do the work. 

For example, we went to Kharkiv in Ukraine to meet 'Tony,' an English volunteer first responder. He has his own response vehicle. With missiles hitting the city daily, he doesn't have time to apply for a project grant! He's literally hands-on saving lives every day. He needs tourniquets and Israeli bandages. His option is to use his own savings, or borrow from friends. Planet Humana stepped in to provide a cash grant to purchase those items, and to keep him and his crew and cars mobile.

Planet Humana draws its funds from a small circle of high wealth individuals. We outsource almost all our administration. We are growth-limited, with a view to maximising the flow of funds straight to where it makes the biggest difference. We're hands-on, and boots-on-the-ground.

News Decoder informs, connects and empowers youth to be engaged citizens and changemakers locally, nationally and globally.


**Help us empower the changemakers of tomorrow**

Today’s world is more interconnected and complex than ever, yet it’s also more divided and polarized. Extremist views, culture wars, political populism and attacks on democracy are growing and ideological divides are making it harder to tackle global challenges like the climate crisis.

When News Decoder began in 2015, our founding belief was that young people could transcend the role of passive information consumers to become powerful knowledge producers and agents of change. Over the past decade, we have demonstrated not only that this vision is possible but how it can be achieved.

Momus is an online platform for art writing and criticism (including Momus: The Podcast, mentorship programs, and publishing).

In October 2024, *Momus* celebrated its tenth anniversary. Our platform continues to grow in momentum and reach—finding new audiences at a time when many legacy publications are losing trust and relevance. We have raised our writers' rates by over 400% in the past decade. Momus is in a period of growth; in the past year, our readership has increased by over 15%, and the number of applications to our mentorship programs has more than doubled.

Our editors and contributors are experiencing an increased sense of responsibility in a diminished field; this is a vital moment for *Momus* to serve a growing audience and stabilize our future. We offer the kind of resources that have become increasingly rare and necessary to arts writing, criticism, and culture reporting. We have built an ecosystem for arts discourse that is multivocal, creative, and flourishing; a foundation to welcome new writers and readers for years to come.

*Momus* relies on the support of sponsors and individual readers. Please visit our Support page for how you can contribute to *Momus*: https://momus.ca/support/

Surveillance Technology Oversight Project (S.T.O.P.) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit advocacy organization and legal service provider. 

S.T.O.P. litigates and advocates for privacy, working to abolish local governments’ systems of mass surveillance. Our work highlights the discriminatory impact of surveillance on Muslim Americans, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, indigenous peoples, pregnant people, and communities of color, particularly the unique trauma of anti-Black policing.

The Granta Trust is the charitable foundation that runs the leading literary quarterly Granta.

The Granta Trust is the charitable foundation that runs the leading literary quarterly Granta.

Relaunched in 1979, *Granta* publishes new work from established writers alongside unknown and emerging voices, including work in translation. Each edition of the magazine features a mix of fiction, reportage, memoir, poetry and photography. In its early years, *Granta* served as a critical go-between for transatlantic literary culture in a time before the internet allowed English and American writers to readily compare notes on literary developments. Today *Granta* – with a much wider, global readership – fulfils a more central mission for the literary world: it exhibits the writing of the future, much of which finds its way into book form years later.**** 

*Granta* publishes, on average, some eighty writers a year in print, and one-hundred-and-sixty in its online edition. In 2023, thirty of them were new talents, or new to an English-speaking audience. We feature at least two photo essays per issue, with many more appearing on Granta.com. The editorial team’s close collaboration with translators ensures that *Granta* enjoys a wide geographical reach. *Granta* takes pride in working with writers and photographers from all backgrounds and communities. Writing rarely provides a stable income, which makes it difficult for writers without sufficient means to develop their craft and establish important connections. *Granta* has a long history of finding and publishing under-represented voices, and providing young writers with a platform where they can be discovered by agents, publishers, and, most importantly, readers. 

Past contributors whose careers have been developed by the magazine include Kazuo Ishiguro, Richard Ford, Arundhati Roy, Salman Rushdie, Zadie Smith, Sally Rooney, Svetlana Alexievich and Binyavanga Wainaina, among many others. Our ‘Best of Young’ issues, released decade by decade, introduce the most important voices of each generation – in Britain, America, Brazil and Spain – and define the contours of the literary landscape. 

In 2023, as part of *Granta*’s mission to support new writers, we started a programme of writing workshops with our education partners, Professional Writing Academy. The Granta Writers’ Workshops are designed to help writers to improve their technical skills in a supportive and stimulating environment. Bursary-funded places are available on each course for those in financial need – so far, 40 per cent of the awards have gone to writers with a disability, and 60 per cent of the recipients are from the Global South. The courses are oversubscribed, and places are awarded on a competitive basis to writers showing exceptional promise. 

Part of the success of the magazine is reflected by the fact that writers first** published in *Granta* frequently go on to win prizes – in the past year alone contributions to *Granta* have won, or been shortlisted, for the O. Henry Prize, the BBC National Short Story Prize, the Forward Prize, and the Best of the Net prize. This year’s contributors to the magazine have won or been nominated for the Nobel Prize, the Booker Prize, the Orwell Prize for Political Fiction, the RSL Ondaatje Prize, the Rathbones Folio Prize, and the Gordon Burn Prize. 

The magazine currently has a circulation of 23,000. We produce a regular, critically-acclaimed podcast, while Granta.com, our online platform, records more than 350,000 pageviews monthly. In addition to reaching a worldwide audience directly, we also offer institutional subscriptions, which give students across the globe access to our archive. The physical archive of *Granta*, which includes valuable editorial correspondence with our writers, is held by the British Library. 

Few literary magazines are able to thrive without external funding. The income from our endowment and from subscriptions, advertising and courses cover only a part of our costs. Without the generosity of individuals and organisations such as the Ford Foundation and the British Council, *Granta* would be unable to fulfil its mission of being the leading literary quarterly in the English-speaking world.

By giving to Granta Trust you help to publish new writers from all over the world, enable journalists to write long-form reportage that uncovers corruption and promotes justice, as well as develop the diversity and sustainability of the literary landscape. We hope that you will consider supporting us in this vital work.

The Human Rights Foundation promotes and protects human rights globally, with a focus on closed societies.

HRF is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting and protecting human rights and democracy globally. HRF works to promote freedom where it’s most at risk: in countries ruled by authoritarian regimes. 

We do this in three main ways: by supporting grassroots activists and providing them the resources, skills, and attention to make a difference in their countries; by popularizing the struggle for freedom and against dictatorship and bringing human rights into the mainstream of global public discussion; and by producing international legal reports, public letters, and op-eds that can influence institutions, policymakers, and the public in the direction of protecting individual rights in countries ruled by authoritarian regimes.

HRF promotes liberal democracy in countries ruled by authoritarian regimes. Liberal democratic values are best expressed through the rights outlined in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, which is ratified by 173 countries and includes every human being’s…

• freedom of speech and expression
• the right to equal treatment and due process under law
• freedom from slavery and torture
• freedom of association
• the right to leave and enter their countries
• freedom from interference and coercion in matters of conscience
• the right to acquire and dispose of property
• freedom from arbitrary detainment or exile
• the right to worship in the manner of their choosing
• the right to participate in the government of their country

Like many other not-for-profit organizations, HRF relies primarily on the generous donations and support of individuals and foundations, who believe in our mission and care about the promotion of freedom and democracy across the globe.

Superbloom is a 501c3 focused on leveraging design as an intervention to change who technology serves. 

Superbloom (founded as Simply Secure) operates at the intersection of digital design and human rights. Since our founding in 2014, we’ve expanded our original focus on usable design practice for secure technologies to include programmatic interventions and research on socio-technical issues like surveillance capitalism, disinformation, and digital consent. Today we work to overcome the alarming lack of available resources in the public interest technology space by openly sharing our knowledge and partnering with organizations to identify unmet needs, design for access, and extend the impact of newly built tools and interventions.

Chapter Four Uganda is an independent a non-profit organisation working to defend civil liberties and promote human rights for all. 

Established in 2013, the organisation works in the courts, legislature and communities to provide bold and innovative legal response through strategic and public interest litigation, first line legal representation, human rights research and documentation, legislative and strategic advocacy, and general counsel support. We work with human rights defenders, pro-democracy actors and civil society organisations - with keen focus on the most vulnerable, underrepresented, and discriminated sections of the society. 

Over the past decade, Chapter Four has grown into a dependable source of integrity, purposeful public interest, and an impartial advocate for justice for all no matter their world view, social, political leaning, or sexual orientation/gender identity.

We make emerging technology accountable, safe, secure and accessible by working with communities, policymakers, and technologists.

Convocation Research and Design (CoRDs) is a research, design, and art agency that combines human rights, technology, activism, advocacy, policy and design together to make complex technology more human readable. CoRD entwines justice, research and design to create cutting edge research, support policy, build provocative tools and creative activist interventions. With our staff and affiliates we build technology and tech interventions, along with crafting research and research outputs, using design research methods, qualitative research, quantitative research, criticality and technology analysis.

Convocation Design + Research catalyzes change by creating innovative public facing research and advocacy work, through campaigns, research publications, consulting, and tool building that pushes for social justice and equity driven technology. We believe in good communication strategies and great design to help tell research and unpack some of technology’s most difficult problems. Some of our work manifests as publications creating frameworks and exploring topics that affect everyday users, such as when to use AI in cities, how online harassment effects journalists and activists, and how to work with emerging technology through an intersectional lens.

We think of our work across four areas: weave, entangle, secure and transfer.

Global Girl Media trains young BIPOC women to stand behind the camera and at the center of the story.

You can’t be what you can’t see. Our media tells us a lot about who we are and the stories we believe about ourselves. Yet, a female POV is under-published, under-broadcast and under-streamed compared to a male POV. Now more than ever, women and girls of color need a place at the table to change the narrative.

We change the storytellers so they can change the world.

Global Girl Media empowers young women to bring their often-overlooked perspectives onto the global media stage. By turning up the volume of girls’ voices globally, GGM promotes freedom of expression and strengthens substantive journalism that addresses historically marginalized voices. We do this while also building self-esteem, leadership capacity, and 21st century skills. Founded in 2010, we are currently active in South Africa, Kosovo, Chicago, Los Angeles, Greece, London and the Bay Area.

GGM believes training young women of color in digital media journalism is important to developing strong, healthy communities. For youth, particularly young women, education and self expression are key to changing the entrenched stereotypes and values that hold them back and keep them from succeeding in the fields of media and technology. GGM intentionally works exclusively with girls to provide a safe, nurturing environment where they can lead, speak their minds, and learn how to close the gender/technology divide.

GGM partners with schools, after-school programs, other NGO’s, and community centers to select girls for our programs and help sustain their work. In addition to four-week summer trainings, Global Girls participate in year-long mentorships with leading journalists, filmmakers, and new media mavericks. In this way, we provide both short-term and long-term support to low-income, marginalized girls around the world.

Our mission is to increase understanding and participation in Lexington, Massachusetts through local, community journalism.

Started by Lexington residents in 2021, the Lexington Observer is a new nonprofit digital newsroom devoted to reporting on Lexington—from serious investigative reporting to ‘explainers’. Our goal is to be a part of civic life in Lexington, joining community organizations including LexMedia.org and publications like the Lexington Times and the Lexington Minuteman. We hope to increase both understanding and participation in our community.

Beyond our one paid reporter, we are an all-volunteer crew with experience in newsrooms, running non-profits, and living and working in Lexington. We’re raising money to hire—at a minimum—one more full-time reporter, and hopefully more. We’ll manage and direct LexObserver with transparency so the community can see how decisions are made.

Join us—and don’t forget all of your contributions are tax-deductible.

Michener, Toni Morrison, Elizabeth Janeway, and Barbara Tuchman.

The San Antonio Heron, founded in 2018, is a nonprofit newsroom reporting on development and its impact on inner city communities.

The Heron launched in June 2018 with the purpose of chronicling downtown San Antonio development and its impact on abutting neighborhoods

We are dedicated to producing thoroughly-reported and clearly-written stories. Our goal for every story is to gather all the facts and opinions and present them in an objective way so the reader decides on their own how they feel about the issue.

Through meaty analysis and deep dives, we strive to answer the following questions: How and why is downtown San Antonio changing? What’s the impact on nearby communities, especially vulnerable ones? Who’s benefitting and who’s not from the growth? How does San Antonio grow as a city while maintaining its unique culture?

Our second objective is the “how?” We aim to raise the standard for journalism in San Antonio by embracing a reader-first philosophy, while obsessing over objectivity and fairness. Our third goal is to create an internship program for San Antonio students who may want to pursue writing and photography. We’d like to create a pipeline of local talent so local kids can serve their communities through storytelling.

Simply put, we exist to inform our readers. That is our only obligation. We do not produce our journalism for personal gain, for awards, nor for vanity.

World Press Photo Foundation, founded in 1955, manages the world’s most prestigious, independent press photography competition.

World Press Photo Foundation, founded in the Netherlands in 1955, manages the world’s most prestigious, independent press photography competition. Our focus on the image, and the truth that the image can convey, is consistent with our stand against censorship and attacks on photojournalists, as well as our projects in support of press freedom and the safety of journalists.



- WPPF is a high-impact global organisation, reaching millions of people through our exhibitions and outreach work.

- WPPF has a sustainable business model that combines our social enterprise approach to exhibitions with the support of philanthropists, foundations and companies.



World Press Photos mission is to connect the world to the stories that matter. The foundation aims to foster, support and promote photojournalism and visual storytelling worldwide. The foundation strives to achieve high global public interest, appreciation for the work of image makers, free exchange of information and education of talented image professionals. Moreover, through our educational programs, we aim at enhancing the general publics visual literacy skills.



Current activities,  and examples of typical expenditures.

The foundation seeks to achieve its purpose by, among other things:

a) Providing a global platform for professional photojournalism and visual storytelling;

b) collaborating and partnering with qualified and relevant individuals and organizations around the world;

c) organizing international competitions, developing projects, curating and organizing exhibitions, festivals, meetings, outreach programs and talent programs;

d) providing educational programs, including masterclasses, seminars and symposia;

e) analyzing and exploring how developments in media and technology are changing journalism and storytelling; and

f) producing publications, both online and in print, in the field of visual journalism and storytelling, all in the broadest sense.



Typical expenditures would be costs regarding the Winners Festival, exhibition production costs and acquisition costs.



Historically, our activities have broadly been the same as our current activities.



Activities WPPF is planning for the future (the next few years).

The activities our organization is planning in the coming years align with the activities we have historically performed. We will continue to organize an annual photography competition, awarding the best photojournalism and documentary photography. We will continue to organize exhibitions and educational programs (in the form of masterclasses and portfolio reviews for professional photographers, but also mentorship programs for youth). We will also implement our Press Freedom Strategy, including safety trainings and an Emergency Fund for photojournalists working in high risk areas. We will also develop our visual literacy strategy, in the form of accessible online resources that can be used by the general public, as well as in educational institutions, to help people improve their understanding of the images they see.

Just a little from you can help us do a lot to help strengthen crucial engagement between news media and the young. 

HOW TO DONATE? Choose one of the options by clicking the DONATE button or send a check made out to Myriad with the note "American Friends of Global Youth & News Media" with short cover letter to  **Myriad USA, *551 Fifth Avenue*. *Suite 2400*. New York, NY 10176 USA**   Remember:  individuals who itemize their U.S. tax returns or receive payments from American Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) can get a tax deduction for a donation.

OUR AIM? Strengthen the ties between news media and the young to protect democracy and the journalism that serves it by filling some gaps in global action.

1. YOU CAN HELP US HELP TEACHERS — Our  news/media literacy teacher laureates do exemplary work throughout the globe helping their students learn why rigorous journalism is necessary and about the threats to those who do that job. You can help us support them and show others how to emulate this important work. Why is it critical to do that? Because most media literacy work skips that part.

2. YOU CAN HELP US HELP JOURNALISM  THAT SERVES CHILDREN — We help editors of news for children and those who want to do that work. We have done two webinars  for beginners about how to get started in doing journalism for children and the lessons from that work for those who do news for the rest of us. When the war Ukraine began, we worked with children's news outlets in a multifaceted  #KidsDrawPeace4Ukraine  project that will last as long as it's needed. In our latest project,  #HowToSaveOurPlanetStep1  we want to get the demands those editors gathered about climate solutions to decision makers, partly to remind those leaders for whom they are really working.  

3. YOU CAN HELP US AMPLIFY TEENAGE JOURNALISM — Our first  World Teenage Reporting Project showcased the largely ignored stories of how teenagers where helping during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. This year's  Climate Champion Profiles Challenge  celebrated and rewarded teenagers (thanks to our partners) who revealed heroes who are helping save the Earth. 

4. YOU CAN HELP US GET THE WORD OUT — We curate and put into context transferable intelligence from around the world about smart ways news media are engaging youth. Our first page of resources focuses on compelling ways to help students learn about the  threats to journalists.  We aim to do a multi-part report that the other ways news media contribute meaningfully to media literacy while building support for journalism itself.

The 19th is an independent nonprofit newsroom reporting at the intersection of gender, politics, policy and power. 

The 19th's mission is to empower women and LGBTQ+ Americans with the information, resources, and community they need to be equal participants in our democracy. We launched at the centennial of the 19th Amendment with the goal of becoming *the* news organization of record for women and LGBTQ+ people, and of giving them a more representative seat at the civic table. It’s long overdue. While the 19th Amendment gave White women the right to vote, it took another four decades for this fundamental right to be extended to women of color. Trans and nonbinary Americans still struggle with voter ID laws and access to the ballot. The asterisk in our logo is a visible reminder of those who have been omitted from our democracy – the same people we seek to educate and inform.

The 19th is deeply committed to challenging the prevailing national narrative in a way that normalizes leadership and equity for women and the LGBTQ+ community. This requires bold ambition, deep empathy for our staff and our readers, and a willingness to challenge the status quo, no matter how difficult or uncomfortable the process may be. We have begun this work by building an equitable news organization, one that strives to reflect the nation’s diversity and encourages our colleagues to bring their lived experiences to work. And we’ve begun it by providing the kinds of benefits, flexibility and pay that help women and LGBTQ+ people who have been traditionally sidelined advance to the highest levels of an industry that sorely needs them.
