the bonn institute magazine 

rethink journalism 

Foward-looking, dialogue-based, solutions-oriented, and focused on people and their needs — this is the future of journalism. But what does this mean in practice? 

The first issue of “the bonn institute magazine” offers deep insight into the cutting-edge work of various journalists, media companies, and editorial desks and departments. The bilingual articles contain a wide range of international perspectives and cover everything from essential theory and research findings to successful real-life examples and insightful interviews.  

Checklists, puzzles, and a self-test on negative biases also offer space for reflection and serve as a toolkit that is informative, entertaining and can be applied immediately to daily work.

As is so often the case, simple answers are of no help. If you dive deeper, you'll quickly find yourself grappling with fundamental issues and psychological insights that can help journalism enormously.
