Knight Foundation’s journalism and media innovation team gets much well-deserved attention for its media innovation work. Less discussed, but no less important, is the education of thousands of students and professionals each year through $200 million in endowed programs Knight has built over several decades to advance journalism excellence. There are dozens of Knight-endowed chair and mid-career training programs. Since most of that work occurs at universities, I’ve also added some context—an analysis of 25 years of Knight’s journalism and media grantmaking to universities. Read more at http://kng.ht/1iiq0jV.

February 2014 update: Since publishing our original report in December, 2013, we've received dozens of emails from peers in the budding civic tech community proposing additions. On Feb. 26, we released an updated version of the civic tech investment analysis, which includes an additional 34 companies and $265 million of investment. Find out more at http://kng.ht/1cPi3Ar. Investments by private capital funders and foundations in technology that spurs citizen engagement, improves cities and makes governments more effective is growing significantly, with more than $430 million going to the field between January 2011 and May 2013, according to a major report released today by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. The first report of its kind, “The Emergence of Civic Tech: Investments in a Growing Field,” provides an in-depth analysis of the current state of private capital and foundation investments in civic technology. It aims to help organizations and investors better understand civic tech funding, so that they can strengthen their work and help shape the field. The analysis applies a new approach to research and advances the use of data in the social sector; it showcases an interactive data visualization map that allows users to explore investments across multiple areas of civic tech.

Six Lessons on Designing Public Prizes for Impact

Knight Foundation

More than 80% of nonprofit leaders recently surveyed believe that demonstrating impact through performance measurement is a top priority. Yet for many, evaluation feels like a daunting task that takes up time and resources without providing much value. If we agree with the importance of measurement, how do we improve our practice of it? These are questions we often grapple with at Knight Foundation. Above, Knight's Vice President of Strategy and Assessment, Mayur Patel, shares a few simple exercises on how to use evaluation to deliver better programs and promote greater effectiveness within our organizations. Find out more at http://kng.ht/12VJ6Cz.

Measuring What Matters

As social media tools have become ubiquitous, foundations have used them in a variety of ways to expand their networks, gather insights and build new relationships. As a result, there’s a growing interest in developing better ways to measure the impact of their online efforts. The following slides were presented by Knight Foundation Vice President of Strategy and Assessment, Mayur Patel, at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's recent roundtable on Social Media Measurement. Nearly a dozen foundations, including Knight, gathered with communication experts, evaluators and data analysts to share best practices and learn from one another.

On May 1, Knight Foundation is launching a contest with a local focus — the Knight Community Information Challenge. While the contest funds all types of news and information projects, the priority of this year’s contest is to fund projects that make “open government” more tangible and useful to people in a specific community—which makes this contest a unique opportunity for anyone wanting to build and test a new idea locally. Find out more at http://kng.ht/ZPwCPd. Please note: The challenge deadline has been extended to July 1, 2013.

Starting May 1, Knight Foundation will again be offering matching funds to community and place-based foundations seeking to make an impact by funding news and information projects. This year, though the Knight Community Information Challenge is evolving. While the challenge will continue to be an open contest for all kinds of media projects, this year we will be offering up to $50,000 in seed funding to foundations for new ideas. Our goal is to provide the support funders need to test their ideas and assumptions, and iterate as need be, before going on to the more costly process of building out a full project. Also in this round, we will be particularly interested in Open Government projects, an area we think shows great promise. Find out more at www.infoneeds.org. The challenge deadline has been extended to July 1, 2013.
