Alongside projects that are rooted in a geographical location, Fondation Hirondelle develops editorial projects to address global topics with local consequences.
In this category, coverage of justice initiatives in countries affected by extreme violence is given top priority thanks to the multilingual news website Justice Info. Following closely are the environment and climate change, peace and security, and health and education. Through this strategy, we have developed the ability to respond to people’s information needs during pandemics, such as the Ebola crisis in West Africa or the Coronavirus. Fondation Hirondelle develops and supports transnational media initiatives, fostering regional co-productions such as those created in the Sahel on topics common throughout the region, such as migration.
