About the CLEW Journalism Network
Membership
What you get as a member
Through the online network, as well as through research tours and other events in Germany and beyond, journalists have the chance to connect with colleagues. As part of CLEW Journalism Network, you will be able to:
- Exchange ideas and expertise, find reporting buddies for border-crossing energy transition stories, learn and discuss what strong journalism on this complex, major story looks like.
- Reach out to our ambassadors and the full list of CLEW Journalism Network members.
- Be notified ahead of others about new CLEW research tours, events and opportunities.
- Choose as much visibility in the network as you see fit: it is your choice if you want to be found on our CLEW Journalism Network map, or if you prefer your information shared only in a contact list exclusively available to network members.
- Join the Facebook Group for discussions, and share advice on global energy transition journalism within the community.
Who can join
- Professional journalists actively working in the media with an interest in reporting on the energy transition and climate policy. The network is one run by journalists, for journalists. We at Clean Energy Wire want to make sure it remains a professional community built on trust and cooperation. Based on information provided in the membership registration form, non-journalists will not be admitted to the network.
- The netiquette sets out the rules for respectful communication within the network. By joining the network, you agree to respect them. If a problem or any misconduct is brought to our attention, we will address it; this may lead to exclusion from the network. Should you experience any offence from within the community, do get in touch with us via: network@cleanenergywire.org

Ambassadors are volunteer CLEW representatives in their respective countries or regions.
