Rubryka listed among top 20 articles by Solutions Journalism Network in 2022
Rubryka, the Ukrainian media outlet, proudly made it into the top 20 best articles in the world, written in the solutions journalism format in 2022.
"Maybe no outlet better exemplifies the potential application of solutions journalism more than Ukraine's Rubryka. For months, it has steadily reported on how Ukrainians are coping with and surviving the war with russia. It's work that runs counter to the journalistic impulse to seek out the tragedy, but seeing it in action reveals just how powerful covering even the small triumphs can be. It's hard to single out a specific Rubryka story, but this one about a group providing nutritious food to hundreds of people fleeing the war is deeply fulfilling," the Solutions Journalism Network noted.
The article mentioned by the Solutions Journalism Network is Rubryka's article "Ukrainian vegan cuisine: how volunteers in Uzhhorod organize healthy food for displaced people."
The leading American organization Solutions Journalism Network recognized the sustainability and commitment to journalism values of the team of Rubryka.
Inside and outside SJN we asked, "What story from last year stuck with you?" The 20 stories collected come from Nigeria, Ukraine, Armenia, Mexico, India and more. They span a wide array of media types, outlet sizes, and issue areas.
And they're wonderful.https://t.co/vs6HGWyZlP
