The Rules


  • Republishers must credit the original journalist and news outlet at the top.

  • Republishers must link back to the outlet or story at the top.

  • Republishers may cut the story, update it, or do light localization, but nothing more.

  • Photos are not included in the Exchange unless the newsroom is specifically offering them.

  • Follow any other rules the offering newsroom specifies. (Additional special rules will be noted above the story)

  • We suggest, but do not require, that republishers add the following language: “This story is part of the SoJo Exchange from the Solutions Journalism Network, a nonprofit organization dedicated to rigorous reporting about responses to social problems.” Here is SJN’s logo.
