Pangea started life as a small web department, exclusively supporting Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty (RFE/RL). We've come a long way since then. Today, we are a team of around 50 experienced professionals, operating under the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM). In addition to RFE/RL, we also support Voice of America (VOA) and Office of Cuba Broadcasting (OCB).
These goals help us support the Mission Statement of RFE/RL:
“RFE/RL's mission is to promote democratic values by providing accurate, uncensored news and open debate in countries where a free press is threatened and disinformation is pervasive. RFE/RL reports the facts, undaunted by pressure.”
Our work has been recognized by IADAS (The International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences) – as well as by other reputable international organizations. We’ve been finalists alongside other leaders in digital news, such as The Guardian, Vice, and CNN.
Our journey starts in 1997, with the beginning of RFE/RL’s online presence. Two years later, we launch the first automated publishing system – known as “Publisher”. However, the unified “Pangea” brand does not emerge until 2007. Learn more about our journey below.
Our achievements are measurable. Each year, the traffic on our sites increases, and our extensive archives are enriched by millions of journalistic contributions.
