Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

I Saloni in Milan, SOFA NYC, and the Icograda Design Week in Vancouver are all coming up over the next few weeks.

Sustainable Futures
March 31 - September 5
London, UK

This exhibition at the Design Museum explores how design can be used to achieve more sustainable living, examining not only the objects themselves but also the infrastructure in which objects are produced and exist.
