Thousands of Palestinian refugees in Greece and Europe have received positive family reunification decisions but remain stuck in bureaucracy while their relatives are trapped in Gaza. Simultaneously, over 18,500 injured patients await medical care outside the Strip, with hundreds having died while waiting. Despite appeals from international and humanitarian organizations, Europe has accepted only a small number of patients, and family reunification processes remain inactive in many cases. A new episode of Palmograph tracks two parallel lists: those awaiting rescue and those awaiting reunion, highlighting the human cost of delays and policy decisions in Greece and Europe through testimonies from refugees, doctors, experts, and research by MIIR’s journalistic team and Ephimerida ton Syntakton. The podcast is an auditory documentary about life in waiting, contrasting procedural numbers with people who are waiting to live.

PULSE is an initiative for cross-border collaborative journalism in Europe co-funded by the European Commission under Grant Agreement n. PO 4500158093.

PULSE is an initiative coordinated by OBCT that has been promoting intensive journalistic cross-border collaborations in Europe since 2024. Its main aim is to help strengthen the European public sphere by reporting on and telling stories from new and diverse perspectives.

At the heart of PULSE are 10 leading national news outlets (Delfi – Lithuania, Deník Referendum – Czechia, Der Standard – Austria, EfSyn – Greece, El Confidencial – Spain, Gazeta Wyborcza – Poland, HotNews – Romania, HVG – Hungary, Il Sole 24 Ore – Italy, Mediapool – Bulgaria) and three transnational organisations, including OBCT , n-ost and Voxeurop .

Additional outlets and journalists are involved as associate partners, including EUobserver , Føljeton (Denmark), H-Alter (Croatia), Levila (Estonia), Rubryka (Ukraine), and The Journal Investigates (Ireland).

PULSE is driven by a sort of virtual transnational newsroom made up of journalists from all the publications involved. It collaboratively produces new journalistic content on European issues on a daily basis, coming in many different languages. The editorial output amounts to over a thousand publications per year, mostly in article form.

PULSE also runs 4 thematic networks open to any European journalist interested in crucial issues such as EU enlargement, relations between the EU and other global powers, the EU’s green transition, or media and the information society. These networks function as online communities and periodically publish calls for pitches.
