Support Gerador in building a more creative, critical and participatory society. Find out how here.
We do slow journalism as a counterpoint to the urgency of the times that surround us. We publish a magazine, limited edition, and we try to make the most of the digital advantages on our website and social networks to make the information accessible to everyone.
O Gerador pursues these themes today, because they are decisive for what we will be as a society tomorrow:
– Youth: we analyze the desires and concerns of young people. We seek to do journalism on the reinvention of education, employment policies, housing-related problems and mental health challenges.
– Social Causes: we reflect on the main dynamics of a modern and progressive society, such as inequality, discrimination, place of speech, identity and sexual orientation or migration policies.
– Sustainability: we remain alert to sustainability and environmental resilience. We explore information on climate change, new environmental challenges and give visibility to people and projects seeking a paradigm shift.
– Interior: we cover key topics related to the interior of the country and low-density areas, namely demographic risks, desertification, access conditions, poverty, economic competitiveness and digital transition.
– Democracy: we investigate the major issues related to political systems, how society is structured, with the desire to produce consistent and inclusive journalism and we want to contribute to the mobilization of citizens in their civic participation.
– Culture: we address strategic issues related to culture in our country, because we know how important it is for our development. We talk about cultural initiatives and look for content outside the big cities that values popular culture and new cultural expressions.
Gerador seeks to bring its readers increasingly in-depth and careful information. We are rigorous and dedicated, but also relaxed, open to criticism and with a sense of humor.
Gerador is committed to supporting journalism and journalists, particularly younger professionals, through Shopping bag Gerador live science, which offers technical, human and financial resources for carrying out investigative reports, to professionals or students up to 35 years of age.
Gerador rejects any discrimination based on gender, religion, ethnic origin or sexual orientation and defends the values of plurality and cultural diversity.
Gerador is independent of political, economic or other pressures.
We understand culture broadly, as an expression of human activity. That is why we create, organize and produce initiatives that we believe are fundamental for a free and progressive society. Every day we involve people and entities in countless projects, of which we highlight the following:
Oeiras Ignition Generator Festival, where we discuss the future of culture and creativity
National Exhibition of Young Creators, the largest program to encourage creation by young artists. An initiative of the IPDJ, organized by Gerador
Discover Your Inner Self Festival, where we put the low population density locations on the map
Resilient Cities Festival, where we reflect on the future of cities
Trampoline Generator, where we bring people closer to cultural practice
Insties Generator, where we reward those who stand out the most on Instagram in Portugal
EP Colab, where we put Spanish and Portuguese artists and cultural entities in contact
Our education project is divided into two fundamental areas: Teaching and Research. We find new angles for education through the Gerador Academy, where we invite authors we admire to share their knowledge with everyone, in our 25 and 15-hour courses.
In the area of Research, we study society with a set of tools, such as the Culture Barometer and other studies dedicated to topics such as sustainability, journalism or the interior of the country, which result in regular publications.
