Preface

We’d like to start this guide with a short introduction reflecting on who gets to tell stories, and the language we use to describe what it is that we (journalists) do.

📄️ Who are the storytellers?

Who gets to tell stories? Who are stories for? Why tell a particular story? These questions are a good place to start your work.

📄️ A term by any other name

Empowerment journalism is about co-creation. It's the term we use, but it goes by many other names. Here we explore similar approaches.

📄️ How to use this guide

This section goes over how to use/read this guide and the best ways to implement the advice and best practices into your work.
