GLOBAL GROUND MEDIA IS INDEPENDENT JOURNALISM ABOUT MAJOR ISSUES IN ASIA OF GLOBAL SIGNIFICANCE. WE DON'T SHY AWAY FROM COMPLEXITY AND LOOK FOR SOLUTIONS.

OUR PROCESS

1. ON THE GROUND

As newsrooms around the world are being shut and cutting their budgets, the number of foreign correspondents has rapidly dropped. On-the-ground reporting has become rare, and often, one correspondent needs to cover an entire continent. We are committed to always speaking to the people who are affected, and promise to report from the field.

2. IN-DEPTH REPORTING

There is a weird situation going on in the media landscape. Information overload and knowledge scarcity at the same time. It is easy to hear about the latest bombing, election or refugee count. It’s far less easy to find out why these things are happening and taking all the different causes into account. We offer a historical, analytical, contextual, constructive and comparative view on foreign developments.

3. CONSTRUCTIVE

It can be hard to care about what’s going on in the world. Sometimes it seems that one horrible event follows another. We won’t just present one horrific fact after another, but include possible solutions and what’s already being done about it.

4. INFORMED ACTION

After reading about an issue you might want to contribute to solving it. No pressure, but if you want to spring into action, we’ll suggest some informed actions you can take. When some time has passed we’ll inform you about the current state of the problem and the impact of your actions.

5. INTERCONNECTED

The world has never been as interconnected as today. Developments across the world also hit home. Starting with Asia, Global Ground investigates the issues relevant to us all like radicalisation, climate change and human rights issues.
