10 Case Studies
A Sourcefabric Case Study
The Nepali Times, a weekly English-language publication based in Nepal, faced a significant challenge when a major earthquake struck in 2015. Their standard format of analysis was not suited for providing the real-time, on-the-ground updates their local and international readership demanded. Sourcefabric provided a solution with its Live Blog product.
The implementation of Live Blog gave the Nepali Times an intuitive and fast tool for live coverage, which they used to report on aftershocks and rescue operations. This solution from Sourcefabric expanded the newsroom's content portfolio and digital skillset, leading to a more modern and dynamic site. The success prompted them to use Live Blog for subsequent major national events.
