Network meetings are ongoing conversations that help funders stay oriented in a changing field.

MIF Network Meetings are regular virtual gatherings designed to help funders make sense of what’s happening across media philanthropy. These conversations focus on emerging trends, shared challenges, and cross-cutting issues affecting journalism, documentary, technology platforms, and issue-driven media.

Rather than formal presentations, Network Meetings prioritize peer exchange and collective sensemaking. Participants hear from fellow funders, MIF staff, and occasional guests, and have space to ask questions, compare approaches and surface opportunities for alignment.

For many members, Network Meetings are a practical way to stay informed, reduce duplication and remain connected to the broader field—without needing to track every development on their own.
