Can an outsider get to the heart of a story as well as someone personally affected?
The dilemma foreign correspondents face is whether they can tell the truth as well as those who understand the lie of the land.
By Janine di Giovanni
"IWPR fills a critical gap by helping local journalists to focus on human rights and justice issues. In the process, it contributes to democratic transitions, and demonstrates that the best war reporting is not about military conflict, but human consequences."

"IWPR produces fine reports from unstable parts of the world that are too often ignored by the mainstream media — reports that promote understanding in place of entrenched bigotry and prejudice."
