Reportage is published by the Australian Centre for Independent Journalism which is part of the University of Technology, Sydney. Reportage will accept articles and photojournalism from journalists who do not have a connection with UTS, providing the work is of a professional standard and produced according to the International Federation of Journalists or Australian Journalists' Association Code of Ethics.
Reportage will accept stories on a wide range of topics. We aim to fill gaps in news agendas. We have both an Australian and an international focus and will accept short or long stories. We publish news, as well as features. All work will carry a date of publication and be archived. We will link to or publish whole websites, indeed we are interested in experimenting with new ways of telling stories on the web. We have reserved a special spot for photojournalism and hope to include audio publishing soon. Because UTS staff and students have an interest in social research and theory, we have a place for research, analysis and opinion.
We will publish work produced according to conventional mainstream standards, as well as more innovative, experimental work. The Australian Centre for Independent Journalism's mission is to promote investigative journalism. so we are particularly interested in receiving in-depth probing pieces, which have not been published elsewhere. Where pieces have been published in small hard copy outlets, we will consider republishing them to a different or wider audience.
Articles can be submitted through e-mail as a word document to reportage@uts.edu.au For other works, please contact us at the above e-mail address to arrange delivery of material .
We are a not-for-profit organisation and currently receive no advertising income. We therefore, unfortunately, are unable to pay for work submitted. However, through the creditable name Reportage ( our media bulletin in hard copy was produced between 1994 and 1997) built up over the years, and the high standard of the journalism we produce, work published will be highly regarded by the public.
Any work submitted may be edited for clarity, style or leagl reasons. Our editing process usually involves fact checking so retain all your research material and notebooks. Submitting a story to Reportage will be taken as an acknowledgment of our right to edit original copy. Providing you include sufficient details, we will endeavour to return the final copy prior to publication for your consent. However this may not always be possible due to publication deadlines.
Contributors retain copyright of their work for the purposes of further publication.
