The Independent Communications Network is an initiative of the Independent Media Trust, founded by IMPRESS—the UK’s independent press regulator, free from state or corporate funding.

IMPRESS exists to protect the public from media harms and promote accurate, trustworthy journalism.

This network aims to reduce disinformation, misinformation, and harmful media practices by connecting civil society with independent media and communicators. In a confusing and often hostile information landscape, we are building a vibrant, reliable ecosystem that serves the public good, supports democracy, and strengthens civic life.

These are global challenges, and we are working with partners around the world to meet them together.
