Join Our Movement for Information Democracy!

I am currently in discussions with globally recognized non-profit organizations such as Freedom House, National Endowment for Democracy (NED), Open Society Foundations, Human Rights Foundation (HRF), and Eurasia Foundation. Our goal is to partner with these organizations to promote access to high-quality information and enhance the value of our blog.

However, as a solo operator managing this website and publishing over 480 articles, I find it challenging to dedicate time to create dedicated pages for these amazing organizations, write detailed promotional content, and secure certifications, badges, and testimonials from these respected groups. Due to time constraints, I haven’t been able to start this process yet.
