SZEGED - With PM4D support, Szegeder developed new tools for reader participation and personalised newsletters, while launching a new high-quality interview format focused on people shaping life in Szeged. The project strengthened both its digital infrastructure and its ability to produce distinctive, community-focused local journalism.

Project Activities

Szegeder developed and technically implemented a new reader-contributor system and an expanded, more personalised newsletter system within its new digital infrastructure. It also produced all four planned "On-the-Move" interviews, combining long-form interviews with strong visual storytelling. These were core deliverables of the original project.

What is the impact?

The project strengthened the infrastructure and editorial capacity of an independent local newsroom operating in a region where access to strong local journalism is limited. It created reusable tools for gathering information directly from readers and distributing journalism more effectively.

Readers gained easier ways to interact with Szegeder and access its journalism, while the four new interview features brought more ambitious, human-centred local storytelling to its audience.
