Pacific.Scoop is a partnership between Scoop Media and AUT’s Pacific Media Centre and will feature stories by Māori, Pasifika and other diversity student journalists backed by reporters and commentators from the region.
“The idea is to produce a distinct blend of news, current affairs and analysis - a fresh and independent “voice” of the greater Pacific,” says editor David Robie, director of the PMC.
“We are keen to tell the hidden stories and address key issues such as climate change and resource development.”
Pacific.Scoop will have a strong educational focus and include a showcase of student journalism talent – such as AUT’s School of Communication Studies, Divine Word University in Papua New Guinea, National University of Samoa, the University of the South Pacific and others.
