New Tide Media is a network that aims to strengthen ESEA voices and perspectives in journalism and bring them into mainstream media. We aim to create spaces that connect journalists and editors from the West with those from the global majority—with a focus on ESEA. Our mission is to bring nuance and context into anglophone reporting on ESEA and push back on western-centric storytelling that flattens this rich and diverse region.
Venue details will be shared with confirmed guests. Students and aspiring journalists are welcome!
