A message from EJN on COVID-19

Like most of you, we at Internews’ Earth Journalism Network have seen our programs and our personal lives greatly disrupted by the growing outbreak of the novel coronavirus and are making efforts to respond to the pandemic on various levels.

Vietnam’s massive ecotourism charade

A US$9.3-billion reclamation project adjacent to a critical biosphere reserve has experts shaking their heads and locals facing destitution.

Internews developed the Earth Journalism Network to enable journalists from developing countries to cover the environment more effectively. We are now a truly global network with around 9,000 members from 130 countries. To improve the quantity and quality of environmental reporting, we offer workshops and training materials, develop innovate environmental news sites, offer Fellowship programs and small reporting grants, establish and build up networks of environmental journalists and support local news production -- including ground-breaking investigative reports.
