• Summary: Can cyclists find a place in Istanbul's urbanization? Is it possible to use a bicycle in Istanbul's traffic? In order to find answers to these questions, +90 sat down with cyclists, experts, representatives of civil society and the Istanbul city council.
• This is what Fellow Çağrı Özdemir says about the story: “This is an entirely solutions story on how to make Istanbul a more bicycle friendly city. The video deep dives into the problems of cyclists on micro and macro levels, talk with the grassroots cyling activists, experts on urban planning and sustainable transportation, and the metropolitan municipality official to underscore their vision and shortcomings. We tried to apply the 4 pillars of sojo [solutions journalism] clearly throughout the video and each chapter, laid out what works, what doesn't and how similar cities across the world did on this matter."

• Summary: Human rights organizations and activists are concerned about what they see as a worrying trend in Germany. They say police are systematically using excessive force and are disproportionately targeting “politically undesirable protests” such as climate activists and those expressing solidarity with Palestinians.
  Police say they are only enforcing the “rule of law” and do not classify protests as “good or bad” but rather as “unlawful and violent.”
• This is what Fellow Anne-Sophie Brändlin says about the story: It went viral for the reason that we tackled the topic in the first place and because we made sure to include the voice of affected people and People of Color and then confronted the police with their quotes.
