                "description": "The IJB’s research activities include systematic investigations intended to improve journalistic techniques and develop principles and knowledge about investigative journalism. We also work to develop and publish knowledge, facts, and ideas on matters of public interest that enlighten, inform and generate important discussions.By working on high-impact, multidisciplinary projects, students learn public advocacy, core journalism and ethical reporting skills. Broader public interest is also served by in-depth, contextualized examinations of important issues.The IJB was envisioned by Robert Cribb, award-winning investigative reporter and the Bureau’s founding director. It is built on a decade of experimenting with a model to bridge the investigative journalism classroom with the newsroom. That pioneering work has resulted in dozens of major investigations from student-led projects moving onto newspaper front pages and television screens over the past decade.The Bureau works in partnership with major media organizations in Canada, the United States and overseas, as well as with teaching programs throughout the world.Postmedia’s funding investment, as part of a shared commitment to high-impact investigative journalism, helps extend the reach of the IJB’s important work to wide audiences while also investing in the next generation of investigative reporters."
