Fairpress.eu is a unique and currently the only portal in Croatia, countries in the vicinity and EU member countries that deals exclusively and systematically with questions of media freedom, pluralism in media, media ethics and integrity and transparency of publishers.
By reporting on events in media, such as ownership and financial relations between the public sector and media and the influence of those relations on editorial media politics and the information published by the media, Fairpress ensures the distance that the reader must have towards media content that can be categorized as concealed political and interest advertising.
Portal Fairpress.eu has been created as part of a regional project Civil Response to Clientelism in Media – MEDIA CIRCLE financed by European IPA CSF programme. Lead in the project is Partnership for Social Development from Zagreb and partners from five countries of Southeastern Europe are: Expert Forum (RO), Vesta (BiH), Association of BH Journalists (BiH), Public Policy Institute (CG), Association for research, communications and development “Public” (MK), YUCOM Lawyers’ Committee for Human Rights (SRB), Independent Journalists’ of Vojvodina (SRB). Besides the English version, the Fairpress portal has also 6 national languages of Southeastern Europe (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia, Macedonia, Montenegro and Romania).
