Design
The design of the 2024 Annual Report translates CORRECTIV’s values and goals into a clear, accessible, and at the same time powerful visual language. The report deliberately avoids a neutral aesthetic, opting instead for contrast, conciseness, and visual imagery that makes a statement. The design is showing a new look for the 10th anniversary and that journalism is not a neutral craft, but an active force for social change.
Impact & Cultural Relevance
The 2024 Annual Report is a key tool for showcasing CORRECTIV’s work – to supporters, partners, and the public. It demonstrates how investigative journalism, media education, and technological innovation go hand in hand to promote an informed, resilient democracy.
Award-winning journalism: The investigation “Secret Plan Against Germany” received multiple awards, including the Carlo Schmid Prize and the title “Journalists of the Year 2024.”
10 Years of CORRECTIV: The anniversary marks a milestone in the organization’s evolution from a research center to Germany’s largest public-interest media house.
Growing Community: With projects such as Salon5 (youth editorial team) and the CORRECTIV.Faktenforum, CORRECTIV strengthens media literacy and participatory journalism.
Conclusion
Design as a Democratic Practice: The design of the 2024 Annual Report embodies CORRECTIV’s mission: journalism must not only inform, but also inspire, empower, and drive action. For its 10th anniversary it got a new look.
