Reporting from Diverse Perspectives, and Reaching Diverse Audiences
Our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion drives innovation in our storytelling and makes our journalism more impactful. Our reporters seek out a diverse range of sources for their stories. We provide training opportunities for our staff, and we make a conscious effort to share our reporting in communities most affected by climate change.
Training the Next Generation
Beyond our newsroom, we are working to lay the foundation for a more diverse, equitable and inclusive media industry. We partner with graduate journalism programs and historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) through our fellowships, with the goal of populating industry pipelines with more environmental reporters of color.
Measurement and Accountability
Diversity, equity and inclusion are critical measures of our success as an organization and of the fairness and credibility of our journalism. We are benchmarking our progress and, with the help of our board of directors, holding ourselves accountable.
