The Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma, a project of the Columbia
University Graduate School of Journalism, is dedicated to informed,
innovative and ethical news reporting on violence, conflict and tragedy.

Whether the topic is street crime, family violence, natural disaster, war
or human rights, effective news reporting on traumatic events demands
knowledge, skill and support. The Dart Center provides journalists around
the world with the resources necessary to meet this challenge, drawing on
a global, interdisciplinary network of news professionals, mental health
experts, educators and researchers.

The Dart Center's website provides timely articles, expert interviews,
journalist-to-journalist advice, tipsheets and other resources. The
website also serves as a multimedia venue for discussion of controversies
and breakthroughs in trauma science, policy and media coverage.
