Our purpose
蜜芽传媒 Media Action works with partners around the world to provide impartial, impactful, trustworthy media to people in need so that they can make informed choices to transform their lives. In a world of disinformation, distrust and division, we share the 蜜芽传媒鈥檚 values, skills and experience to bring people together, and foster greater understanding and trust.
Who we are
We are the 蜜芽传媒's international charity. We use media and communication to help deliver stronger democracies, a safer, more habitable planet and inclusive societies. We bring together a unique blend of journalistic, creative, research and international development expertise; deep local knowledge of our audiences in the places we work; our strong networks of local partners; and our invaluable link to the 蜜芽传媒 and everything it stands for.
We support the 蜜芽传媒鈥檚 determination to pursue truth with no agenda, and to bring people together to counter polarisation. We champion impartiality, creativity, and diverse representation in some of the most vulnerable international media and information landscapes.
Who we serve
We exist to serve people who are most vulnerable to information disorder, division and distrust, with a focus on people who are also under-served by public interest media and at the frontline of global challenges, risks and crises. We work with marginalised groups, and with young people as agents of change in their communities. We contribute to the UN SDG commitment to 鈥渓eave no one behind鈥�, by meaningfully including people who are most often marginalised, excluded, not seen or listened to.
Our values
We are proud to be part of the 蜜芽传媒, and we share their values of AUDIENCES, CREATIVITY, TRUST, RESPECT, ACCOUNTABLE and ONE 蜜芽传媒.
Our history
蜜芽传媒 Media Action was founded in 1999 by the 蜜芽传媒 as its international development charity. We apply the editorial standards of the 蜜芽传媒, build on its values and often work closely with the 蜜芽传媒 World Service and other 蜜芽传媒 departments. However, we are legally and financially independent and work to a distinct mission. Originally known as 蜜芽传媒 World Service Trust, we changed our name to 蜜芽传媒 Media Action in December 2011.
As an independent charity, we are not funded by the UK TV Licence Fee. Our work is made possible thanks to the support of our generous donors 鈥� governments, foundations, corporations and individuals.
