1/ High in Georgia's mountains, workers brave stunning heights to harvest Nordmann fir cones.

ALT A person in a green jacket and blue pants climbs high in a Nordmann fir tree to harvest cones, set against a dramatic landscape of forested mountains and cloudy skies in Georgia. The harvester is perched precariously near the top of the tall evergreen tree, reaching for the cones among its branches.
2/ It's a lesser-known story behind Europe's favourite Christmas tree, connecting Georgian mountain peaks to millions of European homes. As 2024 draws to a close, we're reminded of these threads that bind our continent together.
The n-ost team wishes you a relaxing holiday season
Remember when we asked, 'Ready to transform your reporting?'
This December, 10 journalists—5 from Germany and 5 from Ukraine—met in Berlin, turning an ambitious vision for cross-border collaboration into reality.

They appear to be engaged in a discussion, with water pitchers, glasses, and notebooks scattered on the table.

(1/2) ⏰ Do not miss this opportunity!
We are looking for stories about economic issues in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan that are at the intersection between local impact and global relevance.
1/ On last Friday morning, Lexo Keshelashvili, a journalist for @Publika_ge , was heading to work - unaware he would end up in hospital. Police broke his nose and neck simply because he demanded what's written in Georgia's constitution: EU membership for Georgia.
3/ Right now, we're raising funds to:
• Support Lexo's medical and legal needs
• Replace damaged media equipment
• Protect independent journalism in Georgia
