Interested learning more of the strategies that may be born of this conference, with extra interest in how they might be applied to medium/small media outlets on strict budgets.
Thank you.
Lots of great ideas flowing. Would like to know if there will be any support and guidance for those interested in starting a nonprofit to keep investigative reporting alive.
Would love to help anyway I can. Currently, I’m in the Republic of Georgia
training journalists. Who do I talk to to get involved?
And here’s a story for you to enjoy from one of my independent study

I’m passionate about real journalism which is getting more “expensive” these days. Is there a way for laypeople to contribute time/effort/energy to this support network?
Now that this organization has had all these deep discussions to help journalism become a better profession under these tight financial conditions with reporter-editor layoffs-buyouts and deep media cuts, what are you going to do about the situation!?
