A fast route into the next layer of context when the headline alone is not enough.
UnescoNews / Trust
Corrections Policy exists to make newsroom expectations clear before a problem appears. Clear standards help readers know what to expect and help editors make consistent decisions when a call is not obvious.
The aim is practical accountability: define the principle, explain how it shows up in daily work and make the route for reader questions easy to understand.

Useful when you want the angle, the background and the practical connection in one place.
Built for readers who prefer a cleaner path from update to understanding.
