Join the Debate

Join thousands of journalists worldwide on ICFJ's International Journalists' Network (IJNet). Take part in this week's discussion question, which asks: "Does family or religion ever lead you to self-censor?"

You will need to register and create a profile in order to participate in IJNet discussions. Since we launched a redesigned IJNet site a few months ago, hundreds of you have already created profiles. So far, you are using IJNet to connect with your journalist peers, answer discussions and polls, solicit professional training opportunities, post your own questions and even hunt for jobs.

Digital Journalism Center for Latin America

This comprehensive regional center, administered jointly by the International Center for Journalists (ICFJ) and the University of Guadalajara (UdeG), is educating a new generation of Latin American and U.S. Hispanic journalists in how to marry journalistic quality and standards with the possibilities and potential of digital media. The Digital Journalism Center is working to advance the quality and delivery of information and improve understanding of technology, for the benefit of both journalists and the citizens they serve.

The Digital Journalism Center is offering all its courses online through the distance-learning platform of the University of Guadalajara. The Center's reach extends to all Spanish-language media in Latin America and the U.S. as well.
