Our correspondents are currently based in the US, the UK, Hungary, Slovakia, Poland, Pakistan, India, Italy. Our supporting news team – editors, designers, developers, member support, and more – is based in a virtual online newsroom all over the world.

Global Correspondent Network (GCN) is founded on principles, which articulate our commitment to independent, in-depth, and ad-free journalism, and guide all our editorial and business decisions.

Consuming a lot of news can make you feel cynical and powerless. Global Correspondent Network (GCN) aims to counteract this effect by searching for common ground between different people, and by giving as much attention to solutions as we do to problems. We call this ‘constructive journalism’, not to be mistaken for ‘good news’. Constructive journalism tells the stories in a way that might get things moving in a different direction. We believe in journalistic activism, meant to bring about change.

News mostly is about what happens today, but rarely about what happens every day. It covers the most sensational exceptions, leaving you uninformed about the rules. Global Correspondent Network (GCN) wants to redefine what news is about, shifting the focus from the sensational to the foundational. Our correspondents cover the most important developments and underlying forces that shape our world, rather than speculating about the latest hype or scare. Put another way: we don’t cover the weather, we cover the climate, informing you about how the world really works.

Global Correspondent Network (GCN) is open to collaborating with media partners. We also accept funding from organizations whose investments contribute directly to our journalistic goals. Any such agreement will include one non-negotiable condition: full editorial independence.
