Kate Howard, IRE Board Secretary
If you’ve attended an IRE conference before, you know how life-changing the training can be. IRE events are valuable not only because they teach us new investigative skills, but also because they build a community of support within our ever-changing and challenging industry.
The IRE Board of Directors wants to help even more journalists experience our training, which is why we’re hosting a fundraising challenge to raise money for AccessFest24 fellowships!
These fellowships will allow journalists to attend IRE’s upcoming fall conference at no cost. They are intended for journalists who would otherwise not be able to attend the conference due to financial constraints.
The best part? The Board is making sure your donation will go twice as far! We’ll match the first $1,000 that comes in earmarked for AccessFest fellowships. That means for every $100 you donate, we are sending two journalists to virtual training next month for free!
We hear it from our members all the time, from early-career journalists to the most seasoned investigators: IRE helps journalists feel empowered, inspired and excited to do great work in their newsrooms. The Board hopes AccessFest24 will help even more journalists get the training they need, especially those going through tough times.
To donate, please fill out this online form and enter "AccessFest24 Fellowships" when asked for the type of IRE fund. Whether you can kick in ten bucks or cover a whole fellowship for $100 – Your donation of any amount will get us closer to our goal. Thank you!
About AccessFest:
The AccessFest conference is virtual by design, created with the goal of expanding IRE training to journalists around the world in a more accessible and affordable format. Since 2021, AccessFest (previously branded as our DBEI Symposium), has offered training sessions on belonging, equity and inclusion – both within the newsroom and in news coverage. The conference also features IRE’s signature investigative and data classes.
