Development and environment as subjects of reportage and journalism are now emerging from their positions of relative obscurity on to the front pages of mainstream media. But they are subjects that require the rigor of good research: a reporter on environment must research well to be able to report well. How is this research conducted? How critical is good research in development journalism? How can research be used to report? What are the essentials of reporting, writing and editing environment stories?
