PIWDW Becomes Global Clearing House for Journalism Training Curricula
The Press Institute is pleased to announce our Global Partnership Initiative. This revolutionary program will allow our new partners to utilize the award-winning journalism training tools that make PIWDW so unique.
The Institute was founded on the belief that journalism
is an empowering tool that can bring voice, strength and light to issues that are hidden and people
who are oppressed. It is in this vein that the Institute will now offer a wide variety of organizational development and journalism training materials to other nonprofit groups and educational institutions around the globe.
