Media Justice Fund Evaluation Booklet: Strategic Grantmaking & Grassroots Organizing for Media Justice

Launched in 2002 with the support of the Ford Foundation, the Media Justice Fund (MJF), a project of the Funding Exchange, advances the social justice mission of the Funding Exchange.  The Media Justice Fund helps to connect media accountability, community-controlled media infrastructure, and local and national telecommunications policy to a broader agenda of social justice.  As the Media Justice Fund celebrates its third year, we are pleased to share this evaluation booklet, “Strategic Grantmaking & Grassroots Organizing for Media Justice.”

This report examines the history and effectiveness of the Media Justice Fund during its first two years of existence.  The research undertaken for this evaluation includes three components: an investigation of the broad field of media justice, including a review of the few but important articles written on the subject; interviews with organizers and experts in the field, nationwide; and a series of organizational profiles highlighting the work of some of the Media Justice Fund’s grantees.
