Press contact, editorial independence, and content usage guidelines.

Press contact

For press inquiries, background briefing requests, or questions about Conflict Watch as a publication, contact us at:

hello@conflictwatch.ca

We respond to media inquiries within two business days. We are not available for rapid-turnaround comment on breaking stories — our editorial process is not built for that, and we would not do it well.

What we can and cannot offer media

We are available for:

  • · Background briefings on the situations we actively monitor
  • · Context on how a developing conflict intersects with specific sectors (mining, oil and gas, energy, shipping, manufacturing)
  • · Comment on the business and operational implications of geopolitical events — not on the events themselves as political or humanitarian matters

We are not available for:

  • — On-record comment attributable to Conflict Watch on the conduct of parties to a conflict
  • — Prediction of political outcomes or military developments
  • — Comment on matters outside our defined coverage scope

Editorial independence

Conflict Watch is privately funded through subscription revenue. We carry no advertising, sponsored content, or third-party funding of any kind. No government, company, NGO, or trade body has any editorial influence over our coverage.

We do not publish on behalf of, or in coordination with, any of our members. Membership of Conflict Watch does not confer any influence over our analysis or our coverage decisions.
