The “Year of the News 2024” project, part of the #UseTheNews<\/a> initiative, aims to reach young people with a range of journalistic content and activities and get them involved in journalism. Leonie Wunderlich<\/a> and Dr. Sascha H\u00f6lig<\/a> researched how young people engage with the campaign and these activities. They conducted six online surveys between April and September and focus groups with young people between May and October.<\/p>\n

Some Findings of the Scientific Research Accompanying the \u201cYear of the News 2024\u201d<\/h2>\n

The content of the Social News Daily editorial team (SND) and the \u201cYear of the News\u201d were rated positively by the participants and were particularly rated as interesting, informative, exciting and entertaining.<\/p>\n

Over the course of the year, a loss of trust in the political reporting on certain topics becomes apparent among the respondents, which is less related to a general loss of trust and relevance of journalism, but rather to a dissatisfaction with the reporting on individual topics. For example, from the perspective of the respondents in all survey waves, the Palestinian perspective on the war in Gaza was given too little consideration in media reporting. Due to the small number of cases and the small proportion of people who actually had contact with content from the \u201cYear of the News\u201d, these findings must be interpreted with caution and cannot be generalized.<\/p>\n

The activities in the \u201cYear of the News 2024\u201d, in particular those of the SND editorial team, were designed to (re)inspire this subgroup to take an interest in journalism. To do this, new approaches were to be taken to establish a more profound connection to the reality of young people’s lives and to open up new perspectives. These starting points were implemented by the way of addressing the people, the preparation of the content and the selection of topics.<\/p>\n

When it comes to future journalistic content aimed at reaching young people, it seems advisable to present messages in a way that is easy to understand \u2013 this means explaining foreign and technical terms, using simple language and providing background information on complex topics. In addition, content should be designed to be as appealing as possible, i.e. above all, visually, concisely and comprehensibly.<\/p>\n
