The global magazine on international cooperation
D+C is for everyone who wants to go beyond the news cycle. We tell the stories others overlook and amplify the voices that are too often missing: authors from the Global South, including experts from civil society, academia and politics. Because we believe that only by listening to the world’s full diversity can we shape its future. We don’t just a
nalyse what has gone wrong – we explore how things can be made better. We show that sustainability and global development are about real change and aren’t just empty words. D+C has a worldwide reach, yet we connect directly with our audience on the ground. With daily updates, newsletters, an e-paper, an app and a strong social media presence, we ensure our stories reach the people and places where they matter most. Voices from around the world
From youth movements in East Africa to research institutes in Central America, from village communities in South Asia to the boardrooms of the World Bank: with contributions from more than 400 authors spanning all continents, D+C brings together voices from every corner of the globe. Our editorial team works closely with these contributors, ensuring that their voices are presented authentically and with the necessary cultural sensitivity and nuance. The result is journalism that does not gloss over differences, but instead makes diversity visible while connecting local realities with global debates. News for a better tomorrow
The future isn’t a distant concept; it’s something people work towards every day. From climate-resilient farming to anti-disinformation apps, local innovations fill the gaps when policy lags behind. These solutions may not make headlines, but they matter. They prove that change is possible – and that solutions know no borders. What works in Morocco may also inspire progress in Myanmar or Mexico. D+C brings these examples to light. Journalism that goes deeper than your feed
In an era of misinformation and polarised debate, D+C provides reliable, fact-checked journalism. We see it as our responsibility to foster a well-informed public and create space for dialogue based on evidence, empathy and mutual respect. A fairer, more sustainable future depends on journalism that is diverse, accurate and based on thorough research. That’s why we look beyond the headlines. We provide context, make connections and give space to different perspectives so that our readers can better understand the world and help shape its future. THE EDITORIAL TEAM
