We here at The Takeaway are always looking to connect with local communities. So this week we’re hosting a summit with our friends at WLRN in Miami that’s made possible by the Knight Foundation. We’re experimenting to see how we can use text messaging as a tool for uncovering local issues that matter in Little Haiti, Miami. Can it help journalists and the communities they cover tell more compelling stories?
The Takeaway’s Digital Editor Jim Colgan is in Miami. He explains the design thinking process we’re using.
The World is an independent newsroom. We’re not funded by billionaires; instead, we rely on readers and listeners like you. As a listener, you’re a crucial part of our team and our global community. Your support is vital to running our nonprofit newsroom, and we can’t do this work without you. Will you support The World with a gift today? Donations made between now and Dec. 31 will be matched 1:1. Thanks for investing in our work!
