Solutions for equitable funding access

Deana Balinton, El Tímpano ▪ Rakiba Kibria, Common Future ▪ Robert Chappell, Madison 365 Moderated by Allison Budschalow, Securing the Roots & Dragonfly Partners We know journalism provides critical avenues to a stronger democracy, community connection, and government and corporate accountability. To provide adequate representation and coverage of civic issues, newsrooms need to secure sustainable funding sources beyond reader revenue. We're seeing more local newsrooms start up led by and serving lower-income and communities of color (two terms which are often erroneously conflated), bringing innovative reporting and significant social impact. These newsrooms tend to be smaller, and often have a harder time tapping into revenue sources such as foundation funding, major donors, civic partnerships, and sponsorships. This session will explore what newsrooms are trying, barriers to funding, and how philanthropy can do to meet their needs to ensure equitable access to quality news. INN Days brings together a network of innovative news leaders, funders, and researchers to explore the questions, challenges, and solutions shaping the future of nonprofit news. This annual conference is organized by the Institute of Nonprofit News (INN), which accelerates and shapes the emerging field of nonprofit news. Learn more at inn.org.
