Impact.

FADA engages with local communities, civil society, schools and policy makers across Italy to disseminate the results of investigations and increase media literacy among a young audience. We co-organize and take part in events, festivals, conferences, with the aim of fostering debate, holding institutions into account and promoting participation. 

“Soundways” (or “Percorsi Sonori” in Italian) is a project born from the collaboration with  theater companies that  adapted a selection of Fada’s stories. Our reports are brought to life, on stage, by actors, musicians and video performers. The aim is to engage a diversified audience, going beyond traditional media outlets.

Together with local partners and communities we organize free and participatory photo and visual exhibitions to break stereotypes and change narrative.

A series of laboratories tailored for secondary school students all over Italy, focusing on the role of journalism, media literacy, and the need to decolonize the media and public narrative. The laboratories, co-organized by local organizations allowed students to discuss issues spanning from the climate crisis, supply chains, labor exploitation, youth protests, and migration.

FADA Collective organizes workshops on media literacy, climate change, and community journalism with young people in marginalized areas to provide them with tools for activism and information.

FADA Collective engages with citizens and local associations in peripheral areas, marginalized communities, and small towns where culture and journalism rarely reach.
