About Solutions Journalism Network
solutionsjournalism.orgSolutions Journalism Network is a nonprofit organization that promotes rigorous, evidence-based reporting about responses to social problems—what’s working, what’s not, and why. It trains journalists and educators, publishes toolkits and guides, and runs topic-focused programs (climate, democracy, youth mental health, health disparities, Africa initiative, and more) plus initiatives like Beacons, educator academies, student media challenges, and university hubs. SJN also maintains resources for newsrooms and the public, including a Solutions Story Tracker, a directory of practitioners, and a global network of trainers and partners. Its work emphasizes ethics, accountability, and learning from both successes and failures to rebalance news coverage toward solutions.
