The Institute for War & Peace Reporting is an independent media organization that focuses on addressing the threats of propaganda in Eastern Partnership regions. The non-profit company is based in London, UK. The British company does this by creating targeted projects that debunk disinformation and advance reporters' investigative skills. Recently, they covered the Jewish festival of lights, Hanukkah, in Odesa, Ukraine, where the Jewish community found a new, powerful, and symbolic meaning in the festival. The company aims to give voice to people at the frontlines of conflict and transition to help them drive change.
