In February, the International Reporting Project and nine innovative journalists and new media experts from around the world travelled to India for an intensive ten-day trip to explore issues of child survival.
The journalists travelled across India and met with a wide range of experts on topics ranging from vaccines, child malnutrition, tuberculosis, polio, HIV/AIDS, maternal health, access to clean water and hygiene, privatization of health care and its effect on child survival to the impact of agricultural and rural development on child survival.
The journalists produced many stories and blog posts from the trip. Read their work on the IRP site:
