Inter Press Service International Association (IPS)

Unverified non-profit organisation

Inter Press Service International Association (IPS) is the world’s leading news agency on issues such as development, environment, human rights and civil society. Its three main areas of work are: providing news and content by producing stories and analyses, which explain how events and global processes affect individuals and communities, especially the marginalised and voiceless; capacity-building by empowering journalists, media organisations and civil society to be better able to communicate effectively by leveraging IPS’ unique character as a Southern-focused news agency, offering a different kind of training and follow-up; and dissemination and networking by building an information bridge linking civil society, international institutions, policy-makers, donors and individual readers, to promote an ongoing dialogue about communication and development for a better world.
