Toolkit · Journalists & media

For investigative journalists, newsrooms, and documentary makers working in social-first formats

A deeper toolkit for media practitioners who need to translate verification-grade reporting into short-form content that competes for attention — without sacrificing rigour, sourcing, or trust.

Status: In co-creation Built on: Foundational four-pillar framework

In development

This toolkit is being co-created with media partners

Reviewer feedback — particularly from postgraduate journalism educators — identified clear demand for guidance specifically tuned to newsroom workflows. The journalism toolkit is being shaped through collaboration with investigative journalists, newsroom comms leads, and freelance documentary practitioners.

It will go deeper than the foundational toolkit on the questions that matter most for this sector: integrating short-form content into existing editorial pipelines, sourcing standards translated for a 60-second video, the trust-collapse problem between long-form investigation and social audiences, and the ethics of engagement-led story selection.

In the meantime, the foundational toolkit is the recommended entry point.
