Purpose .. to provide a medium / media that empowers people to communicate, educate, take action and connect.



Mission .. the Ontario IMC creates a space where everyone can share information, stories, perspectives and feedback.



The Independent Media Center is a network of collectively run media outlets

for the creation of radical, accurate, and passionate tellings of the truth.

We work out of a love and inspiration for people who continue to work for a

better world, despite corporate media's distortions and unwillingness to

cover the efforts to free humanity.



Indymedia endeavors to empower people to become the media by present honest,

accurate, powerful independent reports. One vague long-term goal would be to

foster and facilitate the development of as much independent media as

possible around the world. Some come to their Indymedia organizing with a

deeper goal, to enable people, while they're "becoming the media," to

realize they can take control of other aspects of their lives that they

previously left up to 'experts' or 'professionals.' On a practical level,

some who are involved with Indymedia are working toward the development of

national and/or international television or radio networks, and others are

working toward the establishment of an international independent regular

newspaper and others projects that will assure the public has access to

independent news reports.
