Exciting (and catnip to me) news from #IFPIM: “In #Colombia, FLIP will design & promote a #journalismfund to support media organizations & will also explore other forms of media #sustainability, to reinforce a robust #independentmedia ecosystem across Colombia.”

Independent media worldwide need support & $/€/£ to survive the crisis. Can #IFPIM help?
#ijf22 session today at 12pm CET w/ @khadijapatel of @FundFreeMedia, @nishantlalwani of @luminategroup, & @zoetitus of @NamMediaTrust - join us online or in...
In the @guardian’s story on the #SummitForDemocracy (https://dir.lat/EaWKMi they mention “a fund to be run by “leading international media experts””, but forgot to link to their own pages, where the case for #IFPIM was first...

And the feasibility study - after a year-long consultation - to build a longer-term $1bn fund, #IFPIM, to support #publicinterest media around the world has been released by @luminategroup & @bbcmediaaction's @JamesMDeane - essential (if detailed)...
It's World Press Freedom Day (#WPFD2020) - there's much to praise, to lament, to fear the loss of, and to be optimistic about for #journalism this year more than most. (In the last week alone, we have seen two absolutely essential initiatives in #IFPIM and #INERC.)
