Covering Nuclear Issues: A Workshop for Journalists

Covering Nuclear Issues: A Workshop for Journalists is an intensive training workshop for journalists covering nuclear issues. Our goal is to bring together a diverse group of reporters, academics, researchers and practitioners in order to help journalists deepen their reporting skills and expand their thinking around nuclear issues, which are increasingly in the news. Hosted by the Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard, the workshop is made possible with the generous support of the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation and with assistance from the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard Kennedy School.
