About the Centre

The Australian Centre for Independent Journalism (ACIJ) aims to stimulate the production of high quality journalism, especially investigative journalism; to conduct and support research into journalism and the media; to contribute to scholarly debate and research about journalism; and to promote community discussion about the relationship of journalism to political, social and cultural democracy. The Centre is a non-profit organisation based at the Broadway campus of the University of Technology, Sydney.

Activities of the Centre include the publication of investigative journalism; provision of resources and reference services; continuing education for practising journalists and research in journalism, and contributions to debates on areas of concern to journalists.

Members of the Centre, which was established in 1990, include staff and students of UTS, working journalists and others interested in the media across Australia.

Major projects include the online magazine, Reportage; the George Munster Journalism Forums and the annual George Munster Award for Independent Journalism; the annual Public Right to Know conference and other occasional seminars and publications.
