- Lack of independent information for millions living in post-conflict and developing countries
- Challenges of local journalists to work independently
- In countries where it operates, Fondation Hirondelle’s media help restore dialogue between individuals, groups, and factions that are in conflict. They thus contribute to the restoration of national unity and to peace building
- Acting as an icebreaker for other local media, they gradually build a community of professional journalists and a culture of public debate
- Radio, one of Fondation Hirondelle most used media, is a live media that can create bonds between people both near and far. It is an effective means by which to fill information gaps, especially in places with high illiteracy rates. Radio also allows nationwide coverage.
- People living in crisis zones benefit from an efficient tool to mitigate and prevent conflicts. The information gap is filled. The media landscape of the countries where Fondation Hirondelle operates improves. A culture of dialogue is built. Civic and political rights of citizens are better respected. Credible and powerful media contribute to peace efforts, reconstruction and better democratic institutions.
- The media sector of a country can access professional tools. Values from public service broadcasters are shared and integrated. A new generation of media leaders and managers meet ethical and qualitative criteria for their media.
- Media institutions supported or created by Fondation Hirondelle have a durable presence. They contribute to security and a positive context for economic development.
- Fondation Hirondelle consolidates its expertise in its headquarters and in its field operations and becomes the leading organization in its field.
- Political stakeholders in crisis zones and actors from the international community understand better the role of independent media in crisis zones. Specific know-how and expertise of Fondation Hirondelle are valued and recognized.
- 30 million citizens are able to stay in touch each day with events in their country, to form their own opinions on issues that concern them, and above all to make their voices heard.
- All Fondation Hirondelle media practice professional, fact-based journalism thanks to ethical Charters and codes of conduct.
- Fondation Hirondelle media are leaders in the audiovisual context where they operate. They offer broad ranging content that brings people together: news, political debates, features, music, entertainment, public service programs. They target large audiences, giving priority to interactive methods. Their popularity gives them a special status among the general population and political authorities. Thanks to their websites including program streaming, they also have a large audience among the diaspora.
- They are broadcast in the main national languages and in the official international language. Journalists from different and often conflicting ethnic, political and religious groups work side by side in their newsrooms. Presenters are always local journalists.
