In many countries around the globe, the news media is struggling for survival.
Truth is punished by censorship, economic reprisal, and sometimes death.
Journalists are greatly in need of training to help them cover complex economic, environmental, and investigative stories which have pivotal impact on their societies. To survive as businesses in free-market economies, media organizations need sophisticated skills in marketing, financial analysis, and business management. The World Free Press Institute offers local-language instruction in all these areas, tailored to meet local conditions. We work in partnership with local organizations to support a free press wherever it is threatened. WFPI works with local journalism organizations and media companies to develop programs tailored to meet specific needs.
