The WE Program, as the name suggests is aimed to strengthen the bond between the Citizen Journalists (CJs) and to make it mutually rewarding for all the stakeholders in the value chain of news generation at Merinews.

This program is open for all legal residents of India, who register for the WE Program and are found eligible by the screening team. This program shall be opened for Merinews CJs across the world in near future. This program would replace the reward/ revenue share program, which was limited to an honorarium of INR 500 per article selected for Merinews Picks.

With the introduction of the WE program, larger number of CJ’s can attempt to generate revenue through their writing and reporting skills.

Announcing the WE Program, Merinews Founder, Vipul Kant Upadhyay said, “introduction of the WE Program is in line with our commitment to establish Merinews as THE citizens media platform. This is yet another step towards establishing the true spirit of the WE MEDIA and break the myth that citizen journalism is not remunerative.
