France Médias Monde has achieved the Journalism Trust Initiative certification (JTI) from Reporters Without Borders, securing a perfect score of 100% in the overall rating.

This certification, developed as an international ISO professional standard, is an initiative by Reporters Without Borders aimed at promoting free and independent information globally. It evaluates journalism based on criteria that assess editorial reliability, adherence to ethical and journalistic principles, and respect for journalistic ethics.

The certification process involves a rigorous 200-question test covering various aspects such as editorial organization (including ethics, editorial independence, protection of sources, accuracy, and transparency), funding sources, independence of governance and legal structure, and social management practices. France Médias Monde not only met but exceeded the minimum recommended score for each certification point.

All of France Médias Monde's responses to this evaluation are publicly available on the JTI platform (jti-app.com) in the form of a transparency report. This report has undergone external scrutiny by an independent third-party organization, Deloitte, which verified the accuracy of the report and confirmed France Médias Monde's compliance with JTI's ethical and deontological standards.

In a global landscape increasingly marred by manipulation and misinformation, obtaining this certification underscores the significance and pivotal role of France Médias Monde's media outlets. They are dedicated to delivering free, independent, verified, and balanced information to a worldwide audience in French and 20 other foreign languages.
