Support journalists and filmmakers from the Global South. Your one-off or monthly gift changes who gets to tell the world’s stories and how they’re told.

Why it matters

Stories decide who is seen, who is believed, and which problems get solved. Yet many stories go untold because of lack of funding, access, or visibility. 

One World Media changes that — by investing in journalists and filmmakers, connecting storytellers to global platforms, and amplifying reporting from the Global South to shift understanding, power and influence.

In a time of disinformation, division, and inequality, representation in storytelling isn’t a nice-to-have — it’s a necessity. When outdated models are challenged and diverse voices are heard, stories become more truthful – and the world more just, connected, and informed.
