About the organization
The Global Editors Network is a cross-platform community of editors-in-chief and media innovators committed to sustainable, high-quality journalism, empowering newsrooms through a variety of programmes designed to inspire, connect and share. Our online community allows media innovators from around the world to interact and collaborate on projects created through our programmes. The GEN Board Members support this mission and have signed the GEN Manifesto. We are driven by a journalistic imperative and a common goal: Content and Engagement First. To that end, we support all kinds of organisations and media outlets, to define a vision for the future of journalism and enhance its quality through innovation and cooperation. Freedom of information and independence of the news media are, and will remain, the main credo of the Global Editors Network and we will back all efforts to enhance press freedom worldwide.
