Citizen journalism refers to the practice of ordinary
people, who are not professional journalists, participating in the
creation and dissemination of news content. It involves the use of
social media, blogs and other digital platforms to report on
events and share information with others.
In a world where the truth is often blurred by the noise of sensationalism and corporate interests, citizen journalism stands as a beacon of hope. It reminds us that the power of storytelling does not belong to a select few-it belongs to all of us.
At its core, citizen journalism is about giving power back to the people. It allows communities to reclaim their narratives, speak truth to power, and push for change from the ground up. It's about creating a media landscape that reflects all facets of society, not just a privileged few.
