Unveiling the American Experience
The Impact of the World Press Institute
Year after year, journalists from all parts of the world have had an unequaled opportunity to see the American system at work, often to report on major U.S. developments, crises in foreign policy, presidential elections, even national tragedies and disaster.
Each year WPI fellows have traveled the length and breadth of the United States…They have returned to their own countries filled with pragmatic expertise and a background for understanding both the U.S., and their own countries in a way they never were able to do before.”
