Daniel Pearl Youth News is an international program for high school/secondary school students. Through our four-part training course, we help young journalists develop writing skills, while instilling in them the critical importance of media literacy and unbiased reporting, whether they are the authors or consumers of news. In the training course and mentoring by professional journalists, we emphasize ethics in journalism, integrity, and truth in reporting, which are the cornerstones of a reporter’s credibility. Upon completing the course, students become certified Daniel Pearl Reporters and can post their articles on the Youth News website. We ask that their first story be on the broad topic of tolerance in keeping with the foundation’s mission.
