INGJM is engaged in research on constructing a model for next-generation journalism to be trusted by citizens in the digital society. We examine the requirements for journalism to be trusted, including ‘evidence based’, ‘open’, ‘interactive’. Trusted journalism initiatives such as fact-checking, data journalism, open journalism, engaged journalism, constructive journalism and solutions journalism are being practised around the world today. INGJM is currently working on a fact-checking system, which is one of the main pillars in the fight against disinformation and misinformation. In addition, INGJM invites practitioners and researchers working on next-generation journalism, particularly engaged journalism, as lecturers to talk about their awareness of the issues and actual practices, and are collecting and systematizing case studies.
