The Project

The Beat helps more people discover and engage with the local journalism shaping Zurich.

We work with journalists and our community to surface the stories that matter, make them accessible in English and create opportunities for people to explore them together.

Because understanding a city starts with understanding the stories and conversations that shape it.
