2014 annual report
a note from the executive director
In 2014, Malala Yousafzai became the youngest person
ever to receive the Nobel Prize for Peace. Malala joined
IWPR’s Pakistan Open Minds programme at age 12 and soon
became one of our peer educators and a blogger for the BBC.
The Open Minds project identified and nurtured some of
Pakistan’s most promising youth leaders, including Malala,
through a media training and public debating programme that
taught participants to use journalism skills to gather, analyse
and disseminate information. Following an assassination
attempt by theTaleban, Malala continues to serve as a global
advocate for girls’ education. At IWPR, her vision for educating
girls and her courage and perseverance have underscored for
us the potential of all of the local voices we work with around
the world.
Nevertheless, it was an extremely challenging year, with the
grinding war in Syria serving as the platform for the rise of
Islamic State (IS), and the seizure of significant territory
in both Syria and Iraq bringing dramatic humanitarian
consequences. All areas controlled by the extremist
movement have experienced severe restrictions on human
rights, rising abuses of women and minorities, and sharp
crack-downs on independent civil society and media.While
the Afghan presidential vote was widely deemed a success,
bringing a peaceful change of government, the year also
marked the withdrawal of international troops from the
country and further gains by theTaliban, with increasing
security risks for non-governmental projects such as IWPR.
The collapse of central government in Libya, and the rise of
IS activity there, also marked a significant deterioration in
another important country for IWPR programming. Overall,
and well beyond the Middle East, it was a harsh year for many
independent reporters and civic voices trying to make a
difference in their own countries.
Yet IWPR programmes continued in more than 30 countries
and territories around the world, strengthening local media,
enhancing the capacity of civil society groups and helping
societies develop and drive constructive solutions to social
challenges. Key results in the year included supporting and
expanding an ambitious media reform programme in Rwanda,
sustaining courageous frontline training and reporting efforts
– especially in Syria, Iraq and Libya – and continuing our youth
Open Minds initiative with extensive activities around the
election in Afghanistan. New programmes were also launched
in Sri Lanka, Egypt, Ukraine, Sierra Leone and Nigeria. An
IWPR trainee received recognition during the third Annual
Journalism Excellence Awards of the Media Council in Kenya,
winning commendation in the category of Good Governance
Reporting.

“In Open Minds, we students learned how to express ourselves and
the problems of others through the media.We learned so much in the
trainings.”
Malala Yousafzai
As we move forward through 2015 and look towards 2016,
we are excited to expand and strengthen the quality of
our frontline programming throughout the world. More
importantly, we will continue to carry out our original
vision – that people in countries under stress should have
the right to be heard, that empowering their information
and their insights is the best way to resolve their conflicts,
build trust and support sustainable development. A
decidedly minority view when we started, this concept –
driven by digitalisation via smart phones, social media and
the rest – now has global resonance.

Over the past two years IWPR has
promoted independent journalism
and free speech in 17 of the countries
identified by Freedom House as the
most repressive nations in the world.
By utilising the power of information to hold governments
accountable in the most dangerous and authoritarian
countries in the world, citizens are empowered to
determine their own futures.

IWPR’s Middle East programming
strengthens the voices of independent
journalists, human rights and women
activists and others speaking out
for positive change amidst the most
challenging of circumstances. IWPR’s
regional initiative emphasises safety
and security, particularly via our Cyber
Arabs digital security project, which
has cascaded electronic security
training across the MENA region,
combatting repressive attempts to
restrict access to the internet.
IWPR-trained trainers held sessions on digital security
across the region, spreading awareness and skills on how
to operate safely online, with sessions in Bahrain, Lebanon,
Kuwait, Saudi Arabia,Turkey, Syria and Yemen, among others.
The Cyber Arabs Facebook page reached more than 170,000
followers. Cyber Arabs and its partners also organised a
six-day Facebook campaign in early June to raise digital
security awareness among Syrian internet users who for
the past three years have been targeted by both pro- and
anti-government hackers.The campaign provided practical
tips on how to operate safely online and generated lively
social media discussions. In November, IWPR conducted its
first digital security workshop for 12 LGBTQ activists from
five Arab countries. Following a training of trainers session
on digital security, IWPR was able to organise workshops
for activists within Syria, all of whom are at risk from IS. One
of the workshops took place under fire, as it coincided with
airstrikes against nearby IS positions.

Despite escalating violence in the country, IWPR continued to make significant
contributions to the Libyan media sector during 2014.
●● The Media Lab project, created in partnership with Libya’s school of journalism at the University ofTripoli, provided hands-on-
instruction to 125 students, half of them women, in radio/TV/print-online production.
●● The media professionalisation programme provided in-depth training to 45 editorial staff at the state news agency LANA, the
main source of news for a majority of Libyan media outlets, and undertook an in-depth assessment of the agency’s capacities
and needs.
●● Additional IWPR trainings in the country strengthened professional skills and covered safety and security for 70 journalists
from a range of backgrounds, levels and communities.
●● In association with five partner Libyan stations, IWPR co-produced 20 editions of the radio programme Reporting the
Transition, which leverages media to connect public officials with their constituents.

IWPR programming in Iraq continued
in 2014 despite the IS occupation of
35 per cent of the country.
●● Over the course of the year, IWPR produced five major media-policy reform documents in cooperation with local and
international NGOs, the Iraqi Council of Representatives, media groups and individual activists.The reform papers addressed a
wide range of interrelated issues, such as freedom of expression, access to information, and the right to peaceful assembly and
demonstration and were the product of 25 major consultative meetings with Iraqi experts and stakeholders.
●● With the onset of renewed conflict, IWPR Iraq increased journalism outputs and conflict training, including conducting six
training courses for 150 reporters and civic activists on how to effectively leverage social media tools to advance human rights.
●● IWPR continued legal reform work discreetly, with the hope of being able to take advantage of new structures and relationships
that will emerge when the immediate crisis passes.

●● IWPR’s Damascus Bureau website published hundreds of
articles written by Syrian journalists living in the country
and served both as an important platform and a crucial
source of income for local voices.
●● IWPR administered a small grants programme
benefitting 15 Syrian media organisations and four
local councils, enabling them to continue operating
inside Syria and report on current developments.The
programme produced more than 2,000 reports, photos,
videos and radio pieces on life in those communities.
●● IWPR also conducted more than a dozen training
workshops on Hostile Environment & First Aid to a few
individuals who went on to train over 140 people - inside
Syria, including in IS-held territories.

“It was extremely difficult to
run the training because of
security issues.There was a
high risk that IS would catch
us. IS believes groups like this
are organising resistance, and
it punishes them accordingly –
usually by killing them, as in Iraq.”

philippines IWPR’s project in the Philippines – the
Citizen Action Network for Accountability
(CANA) – advanced government
accountability by creating practical ways
for citizens to engage with local and
federal elected officials.
●● CANA emerged as an established venue for ordinary citizens
to air their grievances and find solutions, particularly to
alleged corruption, misuse of public funds and pointless
public works.
●● CANA’s website, crowd-mapping initiatives and social media
accounts have emerged as useful platforms for citizens to
engage on issues of public transparency and accountability.
●● CANA’s website is now the go-to resource for major Filipino
media networks, local and international research groups,
schools, international NGOs and other stakeholders seeking
quality resources and solutions on issues of local public
transparency.
●● IWPR conducted 23 trainings for citizen action groups
nationwide, reaching over 700 participants.Workshops were
designed to confront the entrenched pork-barrel system of
corruption in the Philippines.

The highlight of IWPR’s work in
Vietnam over the past year was its
remarkable – if fragile – success in
helping independent civic groups
organise public advocacy campaigns
without official interference, even
doing so with engagement from the
main state television.This included an
environmental commercial that was repeatedly broadcast
over one week before the primary evening news on
the main television channel,VTV-1, and seen by tens of
millions ofVietnamese.The commercial was also the
subject of three follow-upVTV-1 news reports, as well as
several national radio and newspaper stories. Despite
a fresh clampdown on civic activity, the success of this
initiative enabled IWPR to launch a new project in support
of human rights activists and independent journalists and
bloggers.

IWPR launched its first project in
Sri Lanka in September 2014 amid a
sharply deteriorating environment
for civil society groups. The Lanka Advocate
project fosters a culture of public debate and advocacy in
support of human rights, accountability and democratic
governance. IWPR is working closely with local partners
to support the development of a network of 15 provincial
NGOs committed to delivering professional watchdog and
advocacy campaigns on human rights protection.

●● The Open Minds project directly reached 20,000
young Afghans in the build-up to 2014’s historic
elections, organising more than 200 university
debates, hosting live radio fora reaching more than
10 million people across the country and producing
170 youth articles from these youth events.
●● IWPR collaborated with the Dutch to create two
media centres of excellence – one in the volatile
southern Uruzgan province and another in the
eastern city of Jalalabad – that have produced
dozens of in-depth reports by IWPR trained
journalists.
●● In 2014, IWPR Afghanistan successfully completed
a three-year project to establish the Balkh House
of Reporters, northern Afghanistan’s first major
journalists union.
●● Partnered with the University of Arizona to establish
a journalism school at Nangarhar University in
eastern Afghanistan.
IWPR’s sustained commitment to
long-term change in Afghanistan
reaped significant returns in 2014 with
demonstrable impact across the country.

●● IWPR held a public screening of a documentary film
featuring a hip-hop artist from the Bosnian town
of Bijeljina who uses his songs to tackle issues of
reconciliation, and Milan Colic, a peace activist from
Serbia.The event probed issues of transitional
justice and reconciliation and provoked strong
media coverage, social media debate and follow-on
broadcasts over national and regional television.
●● IWPR funding supported young people in the region
as they produced inspiring multimedia projects
addressing issues of transitional justice.
●● In August 2014, our partner, the Post Conflict
Research Center, received a prestigious award from
the United Nations Alliance of Civilisations for its
campaign “Ordinary Heroes,” featuring IWPR films.
IWPR has been committed to covering the Balkans since 1996. In 2014, our evocative
films broadcast over Bosnian stateTVand Al Jazeera, among other outlets, and sparked
intense and constructive debate in the region.

ukraine Ukrainian journalists face huge
security risks as they report from the
war zone in the east. Before last year, very
few had encountered this kind of situation, so Russia’s
annexation of Crimea and covert backing for rebels in east
Ukraine have posed particular challenges to reporters.
The vast majority of Ukrainian journalists, including those
trying to report from crisis areas, lack the necessary
training to cope with these threats. Despite this fact,
Ukrainian journalists continue to report from the conflict
areas, often at great personal hardship – the number of
injuries and inevitable cases of PostTraumatic Stress
Disorder (PTSD) have greatly increased since the
beginning of the conflict.
Launched last fall, IWPR’s Facts for Dialogue project
offered Ukrainian journalists theoretical and practical
training in surviving hostile environments, including first
aid, and separate courses in digital security, war reporting
and ethical journalism. In November alone, 20 journalists
and media professionals received in-depth training on
the physical and digital insecurities of reporting from the
conflict zones, as well as on neutrality, objectivity and
accuracy in reporting.
“The knowledge I acquired
during the training will help me
in the war zone, and will
probably save my life.”

There are very limited opportunities
for independent media inTajikistan
to engage in investigative journalism,
and in 2014 IWPR was the only NGO
in the country actively supporting
the development of these
challenging journalistic practices.
The Dushanbe office, for example, conducted a series of
investigative journalism trainings for 45Tajik journalists
and human rights defenders. Participants were closely
mentored through all stages of their work: drawing up
investigation schemes, finding appropriate experts and
sources of information, conducting fieldwork, creating
databases, systematising their collection of information,
analysis, and publication of the reports.
During the year, IWPR provided
broad support to a NGO Coalition
comprised of more than 100
organisations from across the
country focused on expanding the
rights of the country’s non-profit
sector. In the end, the Coalition’s efforts were
enormously successful and five main amendments were
approved by the Kazakstan government’s Interagency
Commission without any significant changes. IWPR was
crucial in fostering a collaborative dialogue between
citizens and officials at all levels of government.

During 2014, IWPR’s Rwanda programme supported an ambitious reform of the
media and communications landscape and launched a business accelerator to
support Rwandan start-ups.
●● IWPR’s comprehensive intervention in the media sector included, among other things, advisory support for the newly-formed
regulatory bodies, education for public officials, NGOs and media in access to information legislation, and training and
mentoring for professional journalists.
●● Capacity building efforts at independent community radio stations proved particularly successful, with a notable increase in
the quality of programming and the sophistication of the journalists.
●● IWPR’s Rwanda Creative Hub, a business accelerator designed to support sustainable Rwandan-owned start-ups, mentored
a dozen businesses over the year, including a women-ownedTVproduction company, which launched the first independently
produced current affairs programming ever broadcast nationally. In 2014, 200,000 dollars in grants assisted nine businesses
and created 43 jobs.

Our Access Nigeria and Access Sierra Leone projects focused on reporting related
to governance, corruption and transnational organised crime.Trainees’ published
stories covered a diverse range of topics from drug trafficking in the Niger Delta,
teenage pregnancy and high maternal mortality rates, land issues, corruption within
telecom companies, and agents trafficking youth to work as domestic servants.
“I have found the training
very relevant to my work as a
journalist.The challenge with
my job is that, although there
are great stories to report,
funds are not usually available
for the reporter.This project
has given us, with the small
grants, the chance to produce
more such investigative
reports.”

IWPR-supported reporting on justice
and security in Kenya received wide
praise from media partners, public
officials, diplomats, and civil society
advocates, among others, in 2014.
●● A network of 30 reporters and editors were trained
and connected to 12 media outlets on reporting
on transitional justice, security and elections.The
project resulted in more than 220 reports published
or aired in all parts of Kenya and on IWPR’s tailored
website, reportingkenya.net, triggering debates at
the community and national levels.
●● The project’s 1,885 followers onTwitter included
an expert audience of 500 Kenyan journalists and
bloggers, more than a dozen Kenyan legislators,
200 international journalists, 200 legal scholars,
international NGO staff and members of the
academic community both in Kenya and worldwide.
●● The IWPR Kenya private Facebook group continues
to be a safe and productive meeting place for over
1,000 journalists and editors to fact-check their
stories, share documents and, when appropriate, air
concerns about the political and media landscape.

GIVINGVOICE, DRIVING CHANGE
The Institute forWar & Peace Reporting (IWPR) empowers people’s voices
at the frontlines of conflict and transition to help them drive change. IWPR
builds skills, capacity and networks for citizens and their communities
so their voices can make a difference – strengthening accountability and
supporting development, advancing justice and forging peace.
IWPR was founded in 1991 by a group of concerned media professionals, with the aim of supporting the voices of
local journalists, human rights activists and others in areas of conflict. Working in three dozen countries, IWPR’s
innovative programmes are crafted to respond to the needs of the people they serve. Projects prioritise locally
informed objectives and lead to sustainable outcomes. Beneficiaries include citizen and professional journalists,
human rights and peace activists, policymakers, educators, researchers, businesses, and women’s, youth and other
civil society organisations and partners.
As encapsulated in our slogan – GivingVoice, Driving Change – IWPR’s mission calls for a wide range of efforts aimed
at empowering people’s voices and helping them make a real difference within their own societies.The work ranges
from skills building and training to media policy and legal reform; from frontline journalism to citizens accountability
networks and social media; from covering war crimes tribunals and human rights abuses to establishing national
networks for elections reporting.

  • 5. a note from the executive director In 2014, Malala Yousafzai became the youngest person ever to receive the Nobel Prize for Peace. Malala joined IWPR’s Pakistan Open Minds programme at age 12 and soon became one of our peer educators and a blogger for the BBC. The Open Minds project identified and nurtured some of Pakistan’s most promising youth leaders, including Malala, through a media training and public debating programme that taught participants to use journalism skills to gather, analyse and disseminate information. Following an assassination attempt by theTaleban, Malala continues to serve as a global advocate for girls’ education. At IWPR, her vision for educating girls and her courage and perseverance have underscored for us the potential of all of the local voices we work with around the world. Nevertheless, it was an extremely challenging year, with the grinding war in Syria serving as the platform for the rise of Islamic State (IS), and the seizure of significant territory in both Syria and Iraq bringing dramatic humanitarian consequences. All areas controlled by the extremist movement have experienced severe restrictions on human rights, rising abuses of women and minorities, and sharp crack-downs on independent civil society and media.While the Afghan presidential vote was widely deemed a success, bringing a peaceful change of government, the year also marked the withdrawal of international troops from the country and further gains by theTaliban, with increasing security risks for non-governmental projects such as IWPR. The collapse of central government in Libya, and the rise of IS activity there, also marked a significant deterioration in another important country for IWPR programming. Overall, and well beyond the Middle East, it was a harsh year for many independent reporters and civic voices trying to make a difference in their own countries. Yet IWPR programmes continued in more than 30 countries and territories around the world, strengthening local media, enhancing the capacity of civil society groups and helping societies develop and drive constructive solutions to social challenges. Key results in the year included supporting and expanding an ambitious media reform programme in Rwanda, sustaining courageous frontline training and reporting efforts – especially in Syria, Iraq and Libya – and continuing our youth Open Minds initiative with extensive activities around the election in Afghanistan. New programmes were also launched in Sri Lanka, Egypt, Ukraine, Sierra Leone and Nigeria. An IWPR trainee received recognition during the third Annual Journalism Excellence Awards of the Media Council in Kenya, winning commendation in the category of Good Governance Reporting. 4

More importantly, we will continue to carry out our original vision – that people in countries under stress should have the right to be heard, that empowering their information and their insights is the best way to resolve their conflicts, build trust and support sustainable development. A decidedly minority view when we started, this concept – driven by digitalisation via smart phones, social media and the rest – now has global resonance.

IWPR’s regional initiative emphasises safety and security, particularly via our Cyber Arabs digital security project, which has cascaded electronic security training across the MENA region, combatting repressive attempts to restrict access to the internet. IWPR-trained trainers held sessions on digital security across the region, spreading awareness and skills on how to operate safely online, with sessions in Bahrain, Lebanon, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia,Turkey, Syria and Yemen, among others. The Cyber Arabs Facebook page reached more than 170,000 followers. Cyber Arabs and its partners also organised a six-day Facebook campaign in early June to raise digital security awareness among Syrian internet users who for the past three years have been targeted by both pro- and anti-government hackers.The campaign provided practical tips on how to operate safely online and generated lively social media discussions. In November, IWPR conducted its first digital security workshop for 12 LGBTQ activists from five Arab countries. Following a training of trainers session on digital security, IWPR was able to organise workshops for activists within Syria, all of whom are at risk from IS. One of the workshops took place under fire, as it coincided with airstrikes against nearby IS positions. 8

  • 21. The highlight of IWPR’s work in Vietnam over the past year was its remarkable – if fragile – success in helping independent civic groups organise public advocacy campaigns without official interference, even doing so with engagement from the main state television.This included an environmental commercial that was repeatedly broadcast over one week before the primary evening news on the main television channel,VTV-1, and seen by tens of millions ofVietnamese.The commercial was also the subject of three follow-upVTV-1 news reports, as well as several national radio and newspaper stories. Despite a fresh clampdown on civic activity, the success of this initiative enabled IWPR to launch a new project in support of human rights activists and independent journalists and bloggers. vietnam Hanoi, Vietnam AVietnamese woman walks by the LouisVuitton shop in the French quarter.

  • 27. ukraine Ukrainian journalists face huge security risks as they report from the war zone in the east. Before last year, very few had encountered this kind of situation, so Russia’s annexation of Crimea and covert backing for rebels in east Ukraine have posed particular challenges to reporters. The vast majority of Ukrainian journalists, including those trying to report from crisis areas, lack the necessary training to cope with these threats. Despite this fact, Ukrainian journalists continue to report from the conflict areas, often at great personal hardship – the number of injuries and inevitable cases of PostTraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) have greatly increased since the beginning of the conflict. Launched last fall, IWPR’s Facts for Dialogue project offered Ukrainian journalists theoretical and practical training in surviving hostile environments, including first aid, and separate courses in digital security, war reporting and ethical journalism. In November alone, 20 journalists and media professionals received in-depth training on the physical and digital insecurities of reporting from the conflict zones, as well as on neutrality, objectivity and accuracy in reporting. “The knowledge I acquired during the training will help me in the war zone, and will probably save my life.” Kiev, Ukraine Smoke rises from clashes between anti-government protesters and police.

  • 28. There are very limited opportunities for independent media inTajikistan to engage in investigative journalism, and in 2014 IWPR was the only NGO in the country actively supporting the development of these challenging journalistic practices. The Dushanbe office, for example, conducted a series of investigative journalism trainings for 45Tajik journalists and human rights defenders. Participants were closely mentored through all stages of their work: drawing up investigation schemes, finding appropriate experts and sources of information, conducting fieldwork, creating databases, systematising their collection of information, analysis, and publication of the reports. During the year, IWPR provided broad support to a NGO Coalition comprised of more than 100 organisations from across the country focused on expanding the rights of the country’s non-profit sector. In the end, the Coalition’s efforts were enormously successful and five main amendments were approved by the Kazakstan government’s Interagency Commission without any significant changes. IWPR was crucial in fostering a collaborative dialogue between citizens and officials at all levels of government. kazakstan tajikistan Dushanbe, Tajikistan Tajik army soldiers stand to attention.

  • 38. GIVINGVOICE, DRIVING CHANGE The Institute forWar & Peace Reporting (IWPR) empowers people’s voices at the frontlines of conflict and transition to help them drive change. IWPR builds skills, capacity and networks for citizens and their communities so their voices can make a difference – strengthening accountability and supporting development, advancing justice and forging peace. IWPR was founded in 1991 by a group of concerned media professionals, with the aim of supporting the voices of local journalists, human rights activists and others in areas of conflict. Working in three dozen countries, IWPR’s innovative programmes are crafted to respond to the needs of the people they serve. Projects prioritise locally informed objectives and lead to sustainable outcomes. Beneficiaries include citizen and professional journalists, human rights and peace activists, policymakers, educators, researchers, businesses, and women’s, youth and other civil society organisations and partners. As encapsulated in our slogan – GivingVoice, Driving Change – IWPR’s mission calls for a wide range of efforts aimed at empowering people’s voices and helping them make a real difference within their own societies.The work ranges from skills building and training to media policy and legal reform; from frontline journalism to citizens accountability networks and social media; from covering war crimes tribunals and human rights abuses to establishing national networks for elections reporting.
