Public interest media face increasing pressure from global platforms, shifting audience behaviour, and fast-paced technological change. To respond, RePIM brings together leading European universities, public media organisations, regulators, and civil-society partners to train 12 doctoral candidates and generate new insights into the future of PIM. Journalismfund Europe is one of the associated partners.
Through interdisciplinary research, hands-on industry engagement, and a Europe-wide training programme, RePIM explores how public interest media can be produced, distributed, governed and sustained in the coming decades. The project focuses on four core objectives:
- Reinterpreting public interest values in changing geopolitical and technological contexts
- Evaluating new organisational and technical models
- Developing strategies for content, audiences, and distribution
- Proposing future-proof regulatory frameworks
RePIM aims to strengthen the innovation capacity, societal role, and long-term sustainability of public interest media across Europe. More info here: repimnetwork.eu
The RePIM consortium brings together a carefully balanced group of universities, research centres, public service media organisations and industry partners across Europe, selected to ensure strong scientific excellence, real-world relevance, and complementary expertise. More here: repimnetwork.eu
