The NB website is a regional media outlet that allows to focus on what is happening in the region, often in details that national media omit.

It seeks to create a platform that allows better coverage of municipal projects and events in general with a wider reach than municipal newsletters usually have. The creation of such a platform not only spreads information among the public, but increases a sense of belonging, as well as the ability to cooperate.

The mission of NB is also to highlight the importance of peripheries, to strengthen the pride of residents in the place where they live and to support the building of a positive identity. The Broumov region is a remote, rural area on the CZ-PL borderline that still feels uprooted due to the post-war expulsion of the former German population. The region is currently at risk of becoming a socially vulnerable area due to the negative effects of the transformation following the fall of communism. Therefore, NB website regularly presents positive examples of people who live and work here to point out that, despite the challenges mentioned above, the place where we live has not only historical, cultural and natural riches, but is alive and changing for the better.
