Early in 2008, Mort Rosenblum, Gary Knight, founder of the acclaimed photo agency VII, and Simba Gill launched DISPATCHES, a close-to-the-news quarterly for people who care about the world by writers and photographers who watch it firsthand. Our goal is to equip readers with fresh information, background context, and tools for implementing change.

Mission Statement
DISPATCHES focuses on the most critical subjects of our time. Each issue reaches beyond the simple what and who to the more crucial: why and what can be done. Our writers and photographers go to the heart of reality to report what they see without commercial constraints or editorial pressures.
Timelier than books yet more comprehensive than magazines, these reports are meant not only for professional world watchers but also citizens who want to make a difference and students who must deal with crises they inherit. They are rooted solidly in the journalistic tenets of integrity, credibility, and accountability. At the same time, a contemporary design and innovative delivery aims for a wide appeal.
With DISPATCHES and special reports, we offer an independent look at challenges facing an imperiled world. Multimedia projects, a Website, and seminars encourage interactive debate. Our goal is to spark curiosity and provide factual bases to inspire discussion, protest, and change. |
