Today, we close our Rebuilding Trust project. During the past four months, we’ve taken you to a town in France trying to piece itself together after a horrific crime. To a community in Washington state finding that things as simple as gathering trash can help soften partisan lines. And to climate scientists’ struggle to discover where trust in their work begins.

Since Feb. 1, we’ve published 59 trust stories and 16 editorials, including five cover stories for the Monitor Weekly, five “Why We Wrote This” podcast episodes, and one online event with author Alexandra Hudson

Of course, we’ll continue to publish stories about trust, but we’re interested in your feedback on the project – what you appreciated, and what can be improved. We hope we were able to dive beneath the surface to show why trust is so essential to human progress, whether in war or in politics or even at the local animal shelter

You can find all the stories from the project here. Please let me know how we did at editor@csmonitor.com.

A look ahead

Thank you for joining us this week. We wish you a wonderful weekend. Next week, we’ll be working on stories about the Hunter Biden trial, the latest from on the ground in Ukraine, and how a camp in South Africa aims to be a part of the solution to the country’s high rates of gender-based violence. We hope to see you then.

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
