Panos London was established in 1986 as a UK registered charity. Since 1996, Panos London has set up a network of regional offices in Southern Africa (Lusaka, Zambia); Eastern Africa (Kampala, Uganda and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia); South Asia. Panos aims to ensure that the perspectives of the people whose lives are most affected by development (mainly the poor and marginalised) are included within decision-making and that decisions are subject to their scrutiny and debate.

Panos’ job is to make the immensely complex issues facing developing countries accessible and understandable, to provide information that people can trust, and to open up opportunities for different perspectives to be heard. One of the main ways Panos channels voices to the wider community is through local media. It encourages local journalists to cover issues that are ignored, under-reported or misrepresented. It stimulates informed and inclusive public debate around key development issues in order to foster sustainable development. Its priority issues are: media and communications, globalisation, HIV/AIDS, environment and conflict and it views gender as integral to all these.
