The foundation
The KNA-PROMEDIA-Foundation offers professional training to national and international journalists who focus on sharing knowledge about religions.

Its proximity to the Catholic Church and other religious and faith communities ensures a well-founded transfer of knowledge on factual topics of interreligious life. The KNA has bureaux with staff correspondents in Rome and Jerusalem.
