About this organization
Mission
The Philadelphia Citizen is a non-profit, non-partisan media organization that provides deeply reported journalism emphasizing solutions and engaging in person events that drive meaningful engagement.
About
Citizen engagement - we seek to identify our innovators, call out those who stand in the way of progress and shine a light on the next generation of Philly leadership - all while giving Philadelphians the interactive tools they need to become more involved, engaged citizens. Philadelphia doesn't just need another news organization. It needs journalism that focuses on solutions that, together, we can help bring to fruition. It needs a movement of citizens who refuse to outsource leadership to a political class long characterized by an insidious transactional culture. During 2018, the organization had their first annual Ideas We Should Steal Festival which is a full-day convening that brings the most innovative urban thinkers and global thought leaders to share and discuss bold ideas to transform our city. There was over 450 attendees at the festival.
