1. Financial Independence: We will strive for diversified funding sources to avoid reliance on one or a few sponsors who could influence our editorial policy. This could include crowdfunding, subscription-based premium content, grants from international organizations, and other independent sources.
2. Editorial Independence: Our work will follow a strict editorial policy that excludes the influence of political parties, commercial interests, or other external organizations on our content. We will adhere to the principles of objectivity, impartiality, and journalistic ethics.
3. Transparency and Accountability: We will regularly publish reports on our activities, including financial information, and provide our readers with opportunities to participate in discussions about our editorial policy. This will ensure that our audience has confidence in our independence and integrity.
4. Journalist Protection: We will create conditions where our journalists are protected from external pressure and interference. This includes legal support, training on safety issues, and ensuring that they can carry out their professional duties freely.
5. Active Community Engagement: We will involve our audience in the content creation process and decision-making. Open discussions, forums, and the ability to submit their materials will help maintain our independence through direct connection with the community.
These steps will enable us to remain an independent media outlet, providing high-quality, objective, and honest information.
