The Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting is an innovator in international nonprofit journalism. It goes beyond the headlines and sponsors in-depth independent coverage of underreported issues around the globe. The Pulitzer Center supports journalists and partners with major media outlets to ensure publication or broadcast.

The Center promotes additional debate on the issues covered through the use of multiple media platforms and interactive web-based technology. The Pulitzer Center uniquely merges traditional media, new media and educational outreach. To raise the standards of global affairs reporting, reach a diverse American public and broaden international news consumption, the Pulitzer Center's model incorporates untold stories, 'real time' dispatches, partners with public television's Foreign Exchange, spearheads the Global Gateway educational program, organizes university outreach, emphasizes a collaborative approach and creates informative interactive multimedia projects.
