Citizen Poet, Spektr.Press, Latvia
Over several years, the Content Fund has supported flagship Spektr.Press productions, including the satirical series Citizen Poet.
«Each time it was a challenge and ambitious goal for our media outlet, bringing new experiences and forcing our team to push our boundaries far beyond our usual operations. This was only possible because of the unprecedented level of guidance and mentoring the Content Fund provided us through its highly professional experts, an approach which makes this organization truly unique».
Caucasus Mythbusters, JAMnews, Georgia
This vibrant multimedia production offers a comprehensive understanding of the intricacies within the region, dispelling myths and fostering clarity.
«One of the most valuable things about the Content Fund’s support is its consistency, a welcome contrast to the funding patterns of some other donors. The Content understands the need for a continued support. It is also one of the least bureaucratic programs we’ve ever benefited from, allowing us to focus on the real work».
Russian Lost in the EU, NEXTA, Poland
A mockumentary with a compelling and humorous narrative that challenges the power of propaganda and cultural stereotypes.
«We at NEXTA would like to thank the Content Fund for the great support they have given us in the production of our cooperative projects. All stages of the work have been as clear as possible and the team is always quick to help and provide useful advice. Everyone we are in touch with is very attentive and organized».
Evil Anchor, Hromadske Radio, Ukraine
The irony of producing a series of podcast about the history of propaganda, and then being embroiled in a war provoked by contemporary propaganda, is probably the greatest indicator of the historical importance and social value of this content.
«We are delighted with the results of our product. The podcast was fascinating, creative, and informative. We tell stories that aptly draw analogies with the present and develop critical thinking in our listeners. So many people are on the verge of choosing what is evil and what is good. We hope that our podcast sets the record straight».
