Welcome to the Listening Post Collective
About Us
The Listening Post Collective (LPC) is a U.S. based project of Internews, an international media support organization that works with local partners in more than 100 countries to build sustainable independent media and strengthen the capacity of media professionals, human rights activists, and information entrepreneurs to deliver quality, local information.
Our Mission
We partner with people and organizations to develop local news and information solutions that help communities thrive.
Our Vision
A future where civic power is strengthened by equitable, civic media.
What We Do
We develop civic media + power-building resources for places in the U.S. that have been historically excluded from news and information systems. This work requires trust and time, and we work to listen, build networks, understand information needs, and develop real solutions with community members.
We’re Uniquely Situated To Take On This Work
Experience
We draw on 40 years of global experience building healthy media and information environments, especially in vulnerable communities.
Tools
Our listening, design, and engagement tools guide us towards a deep and authentic understanding of how to support communities
