The European Journalism Centre is an international non-profit, headquartered in The Netherlands, with an office in Brussels.


Our diverse team hails from twelve different countries and, between us, we speak around fifteen languages. We believe equality, generosity, curiosity, empathy, and emotional intelligence contribute to better communication and listening. This is the basis of growth and positive sustainable change in an industry that is being challenged in many ways.
