by facilitating independent cross-border investigative journalism.

Journalismfund Europe vzw is a Brussels-based independent non‐profit intermediary incorporated by citizens in 1998, dedicated to strenghtening democracy across Europe by advancing independent cross-border investigative journalism.

📰 One local story a week. A clearer picture of the issues shaping everyday life.

🇮🇹In Genoa, Italy, L'Unica is expanding its local journalism initiative to bring residents in-depth reporting on issues that matter to their communities but are often overlooked by national media.

📰Through a free weekly newsletter, the project delivers one thoroughly researched, fact-checked story at a time, covering topics such as public services, housing, climate, infrastructure and migration. The aim is to make local issues more visible, give underrepresented communities a stronger voice, and help residents better understand the decisions and challenges affecting their lives.

🏘️By building on its experience in Piedmont and expanding to Genoa, L’Unica is also testing a model for independent, community-focused journalism that could be replicated in other regions.

📍 How can local journalism give more space to communities whose voices are often overlooked?

🇨🇿In the Moravian-Silesian region of Czechia, Okraj.cz is using its Local Lens project to strengthen community journalism and support a new generation of local reporters.

📝The project is training young journalists in investigative and ethical community journalism, with a particular focus on national minorities such as the Polish community in Český Těšín and the Greek community in Krnov. Their reporting
explored issues including employment, healthcare and education, while bringing underrepresented perspectives into local public debate.

🚨Flavescence Dorée: Early Warnings, Late Action, Lost Vines

🍇 A new cross-border investigation by András Tóth, Gergely Nagy, Sarolta Kuglics, Zsuzsi Kun, Tünde Szabó and Elisa Tomaselli examines how flavescence dorée, a grapevine disease flagged by scientists years ago, became an epidemic across Central Europe. It asks what authorities in Hungary, Austria and Romania knew, and when.

📊 Drawing on Freedom of Information requests, surveillance and inspection data, and interviews with scientists, growers and officials, the team compares three countries at different stages of the outbreak. It looks at gaps in monitoring and laboratory testing, abandoned vineyards, and incentives that may discourage growers from reporting infections. It also considers how climate change is contributing to the spread of the insect that carries the disease.
