Milestone is street paper history
 2009
has been INSP's 15th anniversary year. To celebrate this milestone in
street paper history, a series of special events took place throughout
the year, including a
Civic Reception in Glasgow; the 14th annual conference and the second
INSP awards in Norway; and the Reuters Networking Reception in London.
As part of the celebrations, INSP publically
celebrated 5 exceptional street papers which have demonstrated an
extraordinary commitment to the development of the network, giving over
and above; to develop the shared mission of the INSP. Thank you to The Big Issue (UK), BISS (Germany), Surprise (Switzerland), L'Itineraire (Canada) and The Big Issue Australia for their support throughout this year.
INSP staff and Chairperson recently met with The Big Issue's John Bird in London to discuss ideas and collaborations for the coming year. |
