Whether leveraging the Internet to provide online journalism training to women  around the globe, teaching middle and high school students to be critical consumers of news or taking our curriculum to remote communities, global partnerships allow Global Press Institute to reach more people in more places.

Past Projects

Voices of Our Future

Global Press Institute, the Empowerment Institute and The Op-Ed Project were all strategic partners in the pilot year of Voices of Future, a World Pulse program that trained 30 women from 21 countries about citizen journalism, web 2.0 and empowerment methodology. Global Press Institute used its Ethics & The Citizen Journalist and The Priniciples & The Practice curricula to train the participants in ethical citizen journalism.

Of the 30 participants, six of the women are now full-time reporters for Global Press Institute's Newswire!
