Editorial Policy

Accuracy and verification

We aim to publish accurate, verified and contextualised information. We corroborate material facts and explain limitations or uncertainty when they remain.

Independence

Editorial decisions belong to the newsroom. Advertising and commercial interests are kept separate from journalistic work.

News, analysis and opinion

We distinguish facts, analysis and opinion. Opinion or analytical content is presented so readers can recognise it as such.

Sources, fairness and sensitive subjects

We seek credible, relevant sources, pay attention to fairness and do not fabricate. On sensitive matters, we prioritise dignity, privacy and avoiding unnecessary harm.

Corrections and tools

Errors are handled under our corrections policy. Translated, adapted or tool-assisted material remains under Kivu24’s editorial responsibility.
