With a health system that is facing unprecedented challenges we need all the courage and all the insight we can get our hands on. Croakey is a space that invites us to to challenge and interrogate our practice and our policy. Croakey’s journalism and activism inspires me to remain optimistic.
The old media is no longer able to meet the information needs of the 21st-century. News and opinion sites are blossoming but ones which specialise in, and have expertise in, healthcare in Australia are few and far between. Croakey Health Media’s focus on equity in primary care is unique and welcome. It fills an important niche, providing very thoughtful and useful analysis and commentary.
At the Walkleys we celebrate and support great Australian journalism. Through our Walkley Grants for Innovation in Journalism we encourage projects that combine quality reporting with an entrepreneurial approach. We’re proud to support projects like Croakey that are an innovative platform driven by independent, ethical journalism for the public benefit.
Croakey is terrific. Thought provoking, well researched information….and easy to read.  A great combination.
Croakey provides outstanding public interest journalism that challenges the status quo through an ethical and decolonised lens.
Croakey! AHPA loves you for your independence, timeliness and collaboration across a range of issues with individuals and groups from population health and beyond. You are a launching pad for ideas, debate and innovation without fear or favour. Continue to bring it on.
It’s always a delight to see the diversity of issues on Croakey, particularly in health policy and social justice, that you just don’t see anywhere else.  It’s also great to see the diversity of voices on Croakey, particularly Indigenous Australians and those coming in via social media.
Croakey is, and always has been a source of timely, topical, well-researched and analysed information and is my go-to for concise reporting about the things I am interested in, delivered in plain language. I like the collaborative model Croakey uses and, in my opinion, journalists writing for Croakey come from a very informed, experiential place. I depend on Croakey articles especially at peak times like budget hand-downs, and delivery of important government reports – for example, Close the Gap – to give me a balanced and factual overview, as well as Croakey’s campaign work, especially their justice advocacy and in-depth work on ‘deaths in custody’, and the #JustJustice series. I trust information provided by Croakey, it is a barometer of good journalism.
Researchers and research organisations can increase their real- world impact by engaging with public debate and public interest organisations like Croakey Health Media. Being involved with Croakey has helped me become a better writer and communicator, with benefits for my research and students.
