IWPR - Institute for War and Peace Reporting (Netherlands)

The Institute for War & Peace Reporting is an international not-for-profit organisation governed by senior journalists, experts in peace-building, development and human-rights, regional specialists and business professionals.IWPR supports local reporters, citizen journalists and civil society activists in three dozen countries in conflict, crisis and transition around the world. We contribute to peace and good governance by strengthening the ability of media and civil society to speak out. We do this by training, mentoring and providing platforms for professional and citizen reporters; building up the institutional capacity of media and civic groups; and working with independent and official partners to remove barriers to free expression, robust public debate and citizen engagement.
