Journalism and Press Freedom

InquireFirst

InquireFirst is a nonprofit journalism organization founded in January 2016 that provides reporting grants to Latin American journalists and organizes Spanish-language workshops, in the belief that working together across international borders, we can strengthen journalism and give people the information they need to make informed decisions about their countries.

As part of our mission, InquireFirst has launched En Común: conocimiento en voz viva [In Common: Knowledge from Shared Voices], a weekly Spanish-language science, health, and environment radio program produced for Mexico’s indigenous communities and reported primarily by indigenous journalists.

With the generous support of GGF, InquireFirst will work with indigenous journalists to weave the unique stories of their communities into carefully reported science, health, and environment programs that will reach indigenous audiences throughout Latin America.
