How can reporting about global student activism and community engagement be revitalizing for ourselves and our communities?

Eligible participants include classroom teachers, administrators, and content specialists supporting Chicago public and public charter schools, out-of-school-time program staff and administrators, and educators supporting programming for youth in carceral facilities.

Each participating educator will receive a $50 stipend for attending, engaging, and completing a post-event survey.

⏰ 4:00-6:00pm CDT
📍 501 W. 35th Street

This event is designed for up to 20 educators and we will hold additional educators on a wait list.

We’re launching a training series called “Investigating the Ocean.” This four-part webinar series is designed as a practical path for journalists conducting ocean investigations. The sessions include:

🧰 May 19: Understanding ocean regulation and governance: https://lnkd.in/eupn4YFS
🛳️ June 9: Using OSINT tools for ship tracking and port monitoring: https://lnkd.in/eJSbstxB
💵 July 7: Following the money and identifying actors that profit from the ocean: https://lnkd.in/eiwmuvSM
🌊 August 11: Reporting on labor and human rights at sea: https://lnkd.in/ew4gk_7x

All sessions will take place at 4:00 pm GMT and will be led by the Pulitzer Center’s Data and Research team, alongside Ocean Reporting Network Fellows.

Each webinar will run for 90 minutes and include time for participants to ask questions related to their own reporting.

Our goal is simple: to share everything we know about ocean investigations. From creative OSINT research to workarounds when information is hard to find, we want these sessions to be as useful and transparent as possible. We’d love for you to participate, bring questions, and share your own methods to inspire the group.
