Through “solutions journalism” you can:
– Positively contribute to your community
– Engage and expand your audience
– Generate income for your publication.
This webinar explores how local newsrooms can practically undertake solutions journalism in your own communities.
The Green Line‘s Anita Li has created an “Action Journey”. This is a repeatable and profitable process for this style of reporting. Anita took us through the income streams associated with this approach and and examples of the topics they had covered.
PDFs of the handouts Anita mentions in the webinar can be found below (if you follow the links in the QR code, please be sure to download as a PDF, instead of editing the file).
