IWPR ESTABLISHES SAHAR JOURNALISTS' ASSISTANCE FUND

Exiled or disabled journalists around the world can now attend training
programmes at the Institute of War and Peace Reporting (IWPR) through a
newly established fund.

The Sahar Journalists' Assistance Fund, named in honour of Iraqi journalist
Sahar al-Haideri, who was assassinated by unknown gunmen in Mosul in June,
will be used to support exiled or disabled journalists, as well as the
families of journalists who die in the line of duty.
