Solutions Journalism 101

As part of Solutions Journalism Network’s work to center equity and inclusion, it’s giving journalists tools to provide more accurate narratives about marginalized communities. Asset-Framing is the practice of defining people by their assets and contributions before noting their challenges. The Solutions Journalism Network is working with Trabian Shorters of BMe to train journalists in how to recognize and use Asset-Framing, with the goal of helping repair the destructive narratives that people of color have condemned as complicit in violence and oppression.
