Check Knight News Challenge finalists

For the second year in a row, the Knight News Challenge asked the public for great ideas aimed at transforming community news through digital innovation.

At the end of the process, 17 projects were chosen for funding. Those projects will be announced on May 14, 2008, at the E&P Interactive Media Conference in Las Vegas.

Many finalists had excellent proposals worthy of being considered by other foundations and funders.

For that reason, Knight Foundation is pleased to share with you the top finalists. We hope you take advantage of this database of screened projects, and ultimately that you find some of these ideas worth of funding.

Below are proposals for projects that have the potential to inform, empower and engage citizens and help them participate in the decision-making process of their neighborhoods, their communities and their countries.
