fjum_mission: Quality journalism through innovative training

As a non-profit organisation, we foster quality journalism through innovative advanced training, orientation and networking on an international level in a time of digital and structural change. Over 3,000 journalists, disseminators, and interested parties from Austria and Europe have taken part in our seminars, events, and panel discussions to date. We are constantly expanding our network and focus on international cooperations. fjum_forum for journalism and media was founded in 2011 with the support of the City of Vienna.
