The Oslo Desk is an online journalism magazine that aims to empower voices that are often overlooked in mainstream media. Founded in 2017 by Ka Man Mak, it began as a local movement advocating for inclusive voices and supporting immigrant journalists. The Oslo Desk recognizes that whoever owns the media holds the power to shape public attitudes and determine whose voices and lives matter.

What sets The Oslo Desk apart is its focus on diversity in the media and constructive journalism. They strive to explore potential solutions to systemic issues and maintain the highest levels of accuracy and truth. Additionally, they assist global citizens in navigating their migration journey.

In Norway, media outlets are controlled by a few powerful groups, resulting in a lack of representation and diversity. The Oslo Desk is dedicated to breaking down barriers for people of color and immigrants to access media channels and share their stories.

Through their various initiatives, including an online magazine, podcast channel, content production studio, and journalism training, The Oslo Desk collaborates with partners to foster knowledge exchange and facilitate solutions.

Their ultimate vision is to use media storytelling and journalistic methods to create cohesive societies where everyone finds a place of belonging, peace, and fulfillment.
