RISJ Annual Report 2017-2018

This year saw the 35th anniversary of our Journalist Fellowship Programme marked by the arrival of more than 120 alumni from over 40 countries for a celebratory weekend of talks, discussions and friendship. Later in the year, David Levy stepped down as Director of the Reuters Institute, being replaced by former Director of Research Rasmus Kleis Nielsen - just one of several senior appointments. Our research continued to pave the way, with the continued expansion of our flagship Digital News Report, and introduction of two research projects: Misinformation, Science and the Media, and Journalism Innovation.
