By personalizing media, consumers would not only be more willing to engage in media consumption, they would also be more likely to engage with their community in order to increase feelings of belonging and connectedness.

As such, this category seeks to provide media aimed towards civic engagement, thereby allowing the average citizen to consume media that reflects their highly personalized and unique civic interests.
