What we stand for
Our B Corp™ certification reflects the choices we make every day. It is brought to life through four key themes that are at the heart of everything we do at FD Mediagroep.
Independent, high-quality journalism
Reliable, independent journalism is the foundation of FD Mediagroep. Through our editorial codes, annual editorial accountability report, commitment to press freedom, and workshops on misinformation in schools, we contribute to a well-informed society.
Responsible use of data, information, and sources
Trust begins with the responsible handling of information. That is why the ethical use of data, privacy, information security, and the protection of journalistic sources are central to our organization. Our ISO 27001:2022 certification reinforces this commitment.
Being a responsible employer
A strong organization starts with engaged people. We invest in a safe, inclusive, and inspiring workplace where employees can grow, collaborate, and bring out the best in themselves and each other.
CO₂ reduction
We are systematically reducing our climate impact, both within our own operations and across our value chain. Through science-based climate targets and close collaboration with our suppliers, we are building a more sustainable organization step by step.
Part of a global movement
As a Certified B Corporation™, we are part of a global community of businesses committed to building a more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable economy. Together, we demonstrate that commercial success and positive social impact can go hand in hand.
