FUTURE STORY LAB
The Future Story Lab is a platform that was launched to support high-quality, independent, socially responsible, professional media production, that would open doors to audience engagement in investigative journalism and media itself, especially at a local level. The Future Story Lab has been established and run by the National Institute for Social Integration (Media4Change programme) from Lithuania and European Dialogue from Slovakia.
