→ Who we are

Editorial team.

The Debate is produced by a small, independent editorial desk. We describe our structure and responsibilities here rather than turning the desk into a marketing page. To reach us, write to editor@thedebate.eu and your message will be routed to the right person.

How the desk is organised

Editor's desk — sets the daily edition, decides what leads, and is accountable for everything published under The Debate masthead. Reachable at editor@thedebate.eu.

Digest desk — selects and republishes reporting from independent European journalists, verifies that each article is correctly attributed to its author, and handles amendment and takedown requests.

Standards & corrections — owns the editorial policy, the corrections log and complaints. Any reader can escalate a concern here.

The journalists you read

Much of what you read on The Debate is written by named journalists reporting across Europe. Every article carries that reporter's byline and links to a profile page aggregating their work here. Browse everyone on the contributors page, or open any byline.
