The document describes how the Global Editors Network (GEN) empowers organizations by gathering a community of early adopters in the news media. GEN helps members assess and develop their news ecosystems. It connects editors-in-chief from different media and allows developers to join conversations through the Editor's Lab. GEN also organizes the annual News World Summit for international editors and provides opportunities for networking and promoting initiatives through its events and channels.

7. “What I value most is the
contact with other editors facing similar
challenges, and the chance to talk frankly
(and indeed unofficially) about how we are
tackling those challenges. It is a way of
finding support and (even!) inspiration
from peers in the industry. I would not want
to see diluted that sense of a network of
practitioners.”
