Apache is an independent Belgian digital media platform dedicated to investigative journalism, civic reporting, and in-depth analysis of public affairs. Founded in 2007, it was created to provide a critical, transparent alternative to mainstream media, focusing on uncovering abuses of power, corruption, and societal issues at both the local and national level. The newsroom covers politics, social justice, environmental issues, and corporate accountability. Its journalists produce investigative reports, longform articles, and multimedia content that provide deep insight into public policies, government decisions, and their societal impacts. Apache places strong emphasis on rigorous research and fact-checking to ensure accuracy and reliability. A hallmark of Apache is its dual funding approach, combining membership contributions with subscription revenue, which allows the outlet to maintain editorial independence and avoid influence from advertising or political entities. This financial model enables Apache to pursue long-term investigations, deliver high-quality reporting, and engage readers with analyses that promote transparency, accountability, and civic awareness in Belgium.
