The Conversation has several interesting newsletters and their site is targeted towards different geograaphic areas.

The Conversation is a unique collaboration between academics and journalists that in a decade has become the world’s leading publisher of research-based news and analysis.

Everything you read on these pages is created by academics and journalists working together, supported by a team of digital technology experts. Our professional editors work with academics to turn knowledge and insights into easy-to-read articles, and make them accessible to general readers.

The beginning of their charter says:

We will

  • Inform public debate with knowledge-based journalism that is responsible, ethical and supported by evidence.
  • Unlock the knowledge of researchers and academics to provide the public with clarity and insight into society’s biggest problems.
  • Provide a platform where experts around the world can share knowledge, discuss problems and identify sustainable solutions.
  • Provide a fact-based and editorially independent forum, free of commercial or political bias.
  • Support and foster academic freedom to conduct research, teach, write and publish.
  • Ensure the site’s integrity by only obtaining non-partisan sponsorship from education, government and private partners. Any advertising will be relevant and non-obtrusive.
