In that time the world has changed dramatically as geo-political boundaries have shifted, economies have swelled and dwindled, and populations have adapted to modern environmental, economic and social realities.

The importance of the news media in reporting these changes has never been more essential, yet the challenges they face are changing all the time too. We help journalists and newsrooms to tackle these issues, wherever they are from.

Our projects vary in scope and scale, from assisting journalists in Zambia or the Philippines to cover national elections, helping Congolese or Jordanian journalists take impactful photographs, or investigating the governance of international aid. We also run regional schemes that work with journalists across a whole continent, such as our Wealth of Nations project in Africa, or the Perspektivy programme in Russian speaking countries.
