Mission
Beirut Today is an independent online newspaper shedding light on the various social, economic, and political aspects across Beirut and beyond. We seek to create a hub for innovators and passionate writers — a comfortable space for back and forth discussions on issues of genuine matter to all.
Crowd-sourced, Crowd-funded
Beirut Today thrives on the contributions of authors from all walks of life. Anyone can write for Beirut Today, the newspaper runs an open publication policy, and our content will always remain free and accessible to all.
Beirut Today is also funded by the people, and it belongs to the people. The newspaper relies on subscriptions from individuals who join it as shareholders: Every subscriber becomes a shareholder and can have a say in how Beirut Today works. By democratizing its funding and shareholder structure, Beirut Today is guaranteed to always be independent and free from financial and political influence.
