IPS Inter Press Service News Agency

IPS is world’s leading international news agency on issues such as development, environment, nuclear disarmament, and global governance. While its headquarters are in Rome, it maintains a strong presence at the United Nations in New York. IPS journalists span Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Europe, the United States as well as the Caribbean and Latin America. We report on how these issues are affecting the lives of people in Africa, Asia, the Arab world, Latin America and the Caribbean as well as in the countries of Eastern Europe. We amplify the voices of the eight out of ten people in the world, who are usually ignored by the world's media. Our content provides an alternative take on issues of international concern for readers around the world who are tired of mainstream narratives. In doing so, we are turning the world downside up. We have been doing so for the last 50 years - in 2014 we celebrated our 50th anniversary.
