The Pulitzer Center is an innovative non-profit leader in supporting the independent international journalism that U.S. media organizations are increasingly less willing to undertake. The Center focuses on under-reported topics, promoting high-quality international reporting and creating platforms that reach broad and diverse audiences. We welcome proposals for enterprising reporting projects throughout the world with an emphasis on issues that are under-reported, misreported, or not reported on at all. At a time of dwindling audience for traditional news outlets the Pulitzer Center bridges traditional and new media and engages the public across as many platforms and at as many levels as possible–from print and broadcast outlets to face-to-face community discussion and interactive web-based technology. Pulitzer Center projects–stories that without Pulitzer Center support would have gone untold–have been featured in various media outlets such as The New York Times, The Economist, Newsweek International, NPR, C-SPAN, PBS, Link TV and more!
