The aim of World News Day is to celebrate the work of professional journalists and newsrooms, and the critical role they play in our societies. By stepping up to make the case for good journalism, we hope to garner public support for and trust in the media, as well as inspire our newsroom to rise to the challenge of delivering the news and serving their audiences.
