Information Matters: 2024 Internews Impact Update

Read the Report

Access to trusted information is essential for survival, progress, and peace.

As our 1,100+ global community of Internewsers reflects on a year of profound challenges and transformative achievements, one truth remains constant: access to trusted and trustworthy information is essential for survival, progress, and peace.

Across the globe, from Ukraine to the Philippines and the Congo, people face rising authoritarianism, economic instability, climate disasters, and humanitarian crises — all deeply linked to the world’s information systems. We work on the frontlines of these struggles, directly experiencing the victories and the setbacks.

Our 2024 Impact Update underscores the urgency of this work — saving lives, preserving democratic values, and fostering dialogue in a starkly divided world. We hope that you will see yourself in this mission — both because, wherever you are, you play a role in the health of your information ecosystem and because, as an Internews supporter, you are directly making a difference in everyone else’s.

Thank you for standing with us in realizing the vision of a world where everyone, everywhere, has the information they need to make informed choices and build a safe, just tomorrow.
