NEMO is a network of exiled media organizations that actively share knowledge to more effectively, and efficiently, provide high-quality journalism to populations without access to a free press.
The network was constituted spontaneously and voluntarily, with the goal of creating a safe and creative space for the empowerment of the exiled media sector. NEMO members believe that knowledge is power, and that free press is more powerful when united.
Mission
The mission of NEMO is to connect and strengthen exiled media globally.
Vision
The vision of NEMO is that one day, news readers across the world will have free choice and access to diverse, independent media.
How does it work?
- NEMO members appoint an organizational representative who has decision-making power in matters related to the network.
- The representative is responsible for keeping their organization updated on their engagement and development at NEMO, and is responsible for finding a replacement at their organization if they leave their job.
- The signatories’ organizational representatives are available for regular meetings, regular communication within NEMO as relevant, and representation of NEMO as relevant.
- Decisions regarding NEMO are made on a unanimous basis with all signatories’ agreements being required.
- The signatories keep bureaucracy levels as low as possible while maintaining engagement as high as realistically possible.
Interested in joining?
NEMO is expanding in 2024. If you are an exiled media outlet that is officially registered in exile, has been operating for at least five years and can appoint a bilingual colleague to participate in bi-weekly meetings, please contact us at info@exiled.media.
The network will invite you to participate in a consideration period during which you will get to know our members and collaboration methodology, while we get to know your exiled media organization and needs.
If both parties are happy with the result of the consideration period, NEMO will invite your organization to apply for membership. At the moment, being part of the network is free of cost. Time and collaboration will be your in-kind contribution.
