The first reporting trip took place in December 2012, with participating journalists from CNN, BBC, PBS NewsHour, NPR, the International Herald Tribune and the Christian Science Monitor. Their reporting will be featured on the IWMF’s website.
A date for the second reporting trip has not been set yet.
