The Water Wars Pulitzer Gateway is featured on a very special edition of Foreign Exchange devoted entirely to global water issues. The educational site, designed by Dan McCarey, is a platform where students from all over the country and in Africa are interacting with each other and Pulitzer Center journalists. Over 1,200 posts have been made.

Pulitzer Center journalists from the Common Language Project provided the portal's material - including video reports, audio slideshows, and in-depth articles - and responded to students questions about their reporting.

Azimuth Media integrated the Water Wars portal in this special edition of Foreign Exchange to highlight and explore the site's features including a student's video question for Pulitzer Center journalist Alex Stonehill.



Also on the show is Rose George, an investigative journalist and author of the new book The Big Necessity: The Unmentionable World of Human Waste and Why It Matters. Rose will be participating in a live chat on the Water Wars portal this Friday 11/7 at 11 a.m. EST. You can visit the Water Wars site and submit questions for Rose today and check back in on Friday for her response.
