Philanthropic Partnerships

AFP’s unparalleled network of 1,700 journalists in 150 countries provides impartial, independent and verified multimedia content in six languages.  The agency’s network connects trends and actions around the world, giving it a unique ability to report with a global perspective.

AFP is a trusted source for a global client base of more than 4,000 media, government, institutional, and corporate organisations. Partnering with AFP ensures philanthropic supported content reaches hundreds of millions of people every day across all political and social spectrums, as well as top policymakers.

AFP’s journalists go straight to the source of the story, speaking directly to witnesses and newsmakers in their own language, then delivering their stories to the world.

AFP reports on the most vital issues facing humanity, including the future of the planet, the future of democracy, disinformation and the digital world, as core priorities.

As guaranteed by its founding statute, AFP speaks with an independent voice free of political, commercial or ideological influence. AFP has also built the world’s largest factchecking network, enhancing its brand and credibility as a source of verified news.

AFP’s award-winning video journalists, photographers, text reporters, digital-investigation experts, data analysts and graphic designers  shape public opinion and influence decision-makers in the countries they report from and further afield.

AFP uses its strength and global network to support the wider media ecosystem, furthering its charter principles of promoting pluralism.
