The IMA was originally for news publishers that are not predominantly funded by large corporations and abide by a recognised, professional code of ethics.

The media ecosystem is changing, as individual journalists and creators build direct platforms with audiences on socials, Substack, video platforms.

Our associate membership is for individual journalists who are not tied to a single news organisation but who believe in building a democratic media, where quality, public interest news reporting is provided in the interests of readers.
