Duration

24 months

Description

The United Nations (UN) was founded in 1945 to maintain peace and security across the world, but its size and bureaucracy often hinder public understanding of its operations, politics, and programs. In response, PassBlue, a non-profit, digital publication administered through the Institute for Nonprofit News, provides reporting on breaking news, long-form journalism, and multimedia products on the UN’s far-ranging operations and their implications. It has become the go-to site for behind-the-scenes perspectives on the UN and the United States’ role in it. With Corporation support, PassBlue will continue to produce award-winning journalism to shed light on the complicated, essential, and often-misunderstood work of the UN during an era of changing and contentious international politics.
