Intro to RNW Media

RNW Media is an international digital media accelerator, working for impact. Our mission is to accelerate the impact of locally rooted civil society organisations and media outlets in their use of digital media to reach, engage and mobilize young people aged 15 to 35 on issues that matter to them like government accountability, gender equality or climate justice. We work with those who, like us, want to unleash the potential of next generations (millennials, Gen Z) in countries where freedom of expression and digital inclusion are under pressure. It is our goal to ensure that by 2030, through digital media, one billion young people can make informed decisions, advance their rights and positively affect society.

We are proud to have 75 years of experience in the media sector, over 50 years as a training centre and more than 10 years working on media for development.
