Media4change is a powerful movement for highest standards in journalism. Our slogan “Journalism – the Home of Human Rights” means that there are journalists who discover space for journalism ethics and human rights in their works.
We are carrying out journalistic investigations on the issues of human rights, equality and diversity, and working on joint projects with editors and human rights experts. We not only discuss with professionals and experts on what is important, but also we create — one of our main goals is, together with independent journalists and editors, to examine problems that are outside of the media agenda. We believe that the cooperation between NGOs, media and experts is the key to a better representation of socially vulnerable groups.
The movement was initiated by the project “Address of Human Rights — Journalism”. This is the official name of Media4Change’s activities. Our goals is that, in prospect of continuity of the activities of this project, Media4Change would continue to be a strong movement for higher standards of journalism, the movement will be complemented by new ideas and projects of members of the movement.

Educational programme for young journalists
more
This programme is the first in Lithuania, where the implementation does not focus on individual training. Educational programme for young publicists is a system that identifies talented young journalists, motivates, supports them and provides information to enable them for socially responsible actions.
Even during the formation of the future journalists’ writing skills, the objective information based on the experience of the Lithuanian NGOs, vulnerable groups of the society, media experts working in the social field, is provided. Young journalists have the opportunity to interact directly with vulnerable groups of the society, thus learn more and overcome prejudices.
The unique structure of the programme helps to touch the essence of the social problems; to understand them from the inside, to maintain an objective position in the public life news. The programme is designed for an optimal result; during the formation of journalistic skills, to enable young generation of socially responsible writing.
National educational programme for young publicists seeks to change the portrayal of vulnerable groups of the society and contribute to the objective, ethical and competent media education.
