This is an online portal with information on donations that were announced publicly (or have been shared with permission) that were of interest to Vipul Naik. The git repository with the code for this portal, as well as all the underlying data, is available on GitHub. All payment amounts are in current United States dollars (USD). The repository of donations is being seeded with an initial collation by Issa Rice as well as continued contributions from him (see his commits and the contract work page listing all financially compensated contributions to the site) but all responsibility for errors and inaccuracies belongs to Vipul Naik. Current data is preliminary and has not been completely vetted and normalized; if sharing a link to this site or any page on this site, please include the caveat that the data is preliminary (if you want to share without including caveats, please check with Vipul Naik). We expect to have completed the first round of development by the end of July 2025. See the about page for more details. Also of interest: pageview data on analytics.vipulnaik.com, tutorial in README, request for feedback to EA Forum.

ICFJ became Knight’s number one journalism grantee when the foundation created the Knight International Press Fellowships. Over the years, Americans traveled abroad to improve the skills of more than 30,000 journalists worldwide, along with exchanges, training seminars, workshops and conferences. This grant will redesign the project to focus on high-impact, innovative projects around the world. The fellows are expected to produce measurable results of transformational change. Projects should be designed to produce lasting, visible impact. Editors participating in the International Journalism Exchange and those who attend the World Editors Forum will create and implement action plans to transform their news organizations. The ultimate goal of this work is to raise journalism standards and increase free expression worldwide. |

Training and orientation of journalists has not kept pace with the boom in the media industry in India and many developing countries. In today's fast-paced life, it has become even more important for media organizations to increasingly rely on professional competence and ethical discipline. The IMII was conceived to inculcate exactly these qualities. |
