EDITORIAL STANDARDS
Ownership and Funding
URT Stories is an independent Tanzanian storytelling platform. This page explains who we are, who owns us, and how we are funded.
Ownership
URT Stories is independently owned and operated. Ownership details are available on request through the contact page.
Funding
The platform is funded through advertising, sponsored partnerships, grants and reader support. Every funding stream is subject to the same editorial firewall.
Editorial firewall
Funders and commercial partners do not see stories before publication, cannot request changes to coverage, and cannot ask for stories to be removed or promoted.
Transparency
Where a story is produced with external support, the support is disclosed in the story itself or on this page.
Contact
Funding and partnership questions can be sent to hello@urtstories.com.
