International Resource Network
IR operates an English-language database called International Resource Network (IRN).[2] It contains profiles of journalists, photojournalists, researchers, aid workers, field experts and information officers working in, or with matters that concern, the developing world. The main target group for IRN is Norwegian journalists, although the database could also be relevant for those working within development aid, business or organisations, and who seeks partners for cooperation or resource persons in countries in the south.
Journalism Award
International Reporter’s Journalism Award recognizes a journalistic product which in an insightful, surprising and engaging way has shed light upon an international issue especially related to Africa, Asia or Latin-America.
The award was presented for the first time in 2010. It was then awarded to Inger Sunde and Harald Eraker for «Connecting people», a critical documentary about the mobile phone industry, that was aired on NRK Brennpunkt.[3]
Aftenposten’s correspondent in South Asia, Kristin Solberg, received the award in 2011.[4][5]
