Faktum

スウェーデン · メディア制作

Faktum is a monthly street newspaper based in Gothenburg, Sweden, founded in 2001. It is sold by individuals experiencing homelessness or social exclusion in various cities across southern Sweden. The newspaper operates under a model where vendors purchase copies at a discounted price and sell them at a higher price, allowing them to earn a profit. Faktum publishes a magazine that features interviews, investigative articles, and often highlights a well-known person on the cover. The initiative not only provides a source of income for vendors but also promotes social inclusion by offering employment opportunities to individuals in vulnerable situations. Through its community engagement efforts, Faktum supports vendors in participating in business activities while raising awareness about social issues.
