“The Daniel Pearl Investigative Journalism Initiative is an act of faith that epitomizes what great journalism is all about: to shine a light in dark places, speak truth to power and unearth stories that regimes throughout the world would keep buried. The Initiative goes about this by sending talented young people to remote places to do difficult and sometimes dangerous work. The payoff is not just in presenting stories that Moment’s readers need to know but in helping train a new generation of enterprising and committed journalists to ensure that this important mission continues. Danny Pearl’s memory demands nothing less.”
