Making a Difference

Making a Difference highlights the power of news media titles to campaign for positive change.  On Monday 1 November, a three-day online vote will go live to determine which local and national campaigns from the past year are the public's favourites.

The winners will be announced on Friday 5 November. Browse the Making a Difference campaigns at JournalismMatters.co

Championing Press Freedom

The NMA campaigns to safeguard press freedom and promote freedom of expression, open government and open justice. It resists any special controls on the press and continues to make the case for self-regulation of the press versus any form of state-backed regulation.

Promoting the power of journalism

Journalism matters. The NMA champions the vital role that local, regional and national journalism plays in our democratic society. By holding power to account and shining a spotlight on wrongdoing, news media journalism acts as a powerful force for good.
