We are committed to freedom of the press, advocate for journalists’ safety, and support individuals in vulnerable situations. We organize public conversations that promote independent reporting as a tool for civic engagement and social impact. Our regular online events and in-person presentations — as well as Dispatches, our Substack publication — probe the production and power of images and strive for a diverse, secure, and viable profession, especially for freelancers worldwide. We do not endorse political parties or take partisan positions.
