Journalism

In light of political and cultural upheaval at home and abroad, much of which is shaped by complex religious dimensions, there is a greater need than ever for religious literacy in journalism. Religion shapes the stories journalists tell across a range of beats—from local to global politics to coverage of climate collapse and economic unrest—often in subtle ways that are not visible at first glance. By partnering with professional journalists and journalism students, we provide resources and training to facilitate deeper consideration of the ways in which to cover religious dimensions of news stories that reflect their complexity and advance deeper public understanding of the issues and contexts covered.
