On April 14, 2011, the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting, Center for Global Health and Development, College of Communication, and School of Public Health hosted an event exploring the collaboration and tension between journalists and public health workers during crises. Experts from global health, NGOs, and journalism discussed this critical dynamic.

A panel, "When Disaster Strikes: Reporting and Responding," was moderated by Jon Simon, Director of the Center for Global Health. Manolia Charlotin, editor and business manager of the Boston Haitian Reporter, was among the participants.

The Center for Biological Diversity is again under attack. Far-right congressmen on the House Resources Committee have launched a baseless "investigation" against us for protecting the Arctic and polar bears from an oil conglomerate. Our Executive Director, Kierán, denounced this as a weaponization of government power, a smear tactic by oil-funded politicians to silence environmental advocates.

This "investigation" is a politically motivated witch hunt, devoid of legal merit and making absurd accusations. To combat this antidemocratic power-mongering and defend our critical work, we've established the Freedom Defense Fund. Your support is crucial to our survival against these persistent threats. Please donate today, or consider a monthly contribution to sustain our defense.
