An audacious new media project launches today, with live presentations throughout the week. Media Democracy in Action, produced by The World’s State and Project Censored is an interactive and participatory media project beginning today with a series of presentations from investigative and citizen journalists.

The project sets off with a collaborative media system “that holds truth to power and showcases a better way forward based on validated evidence, science and solutions based on service.”
