IRE considers bylaws changes

The IRE Board will consider proposed changes to Article 8 of the Code of Bylaws and to a 2006 bylaws amendment about the IRE Endowment Fund when it meets Aug. 13-15.
The proposal would eliminate gender references in Article 8 and turn the endowment fund amendment into a new Article 10. It would change the name of the committee responsible for oversight of the funds, add new duties and expand the committee from five members to seven, among other changes.
As required, this posting gives members 30 days' notice to give comments on the proposal before the board votes. Send comments to IRE Treasurer Brian Rosenthal at brian.rosenthal@nytimes.com

Investigative Journalism Census

IRE and the Ida B. Wells Society for Investigative Reporting have teamed up to collect demographic information directly from investigative reporters, editors, producers and others who conduct investigative work. Our end goal is to provide demographic data that can be used to diversify who gets to conduct investigative work and steer future hiring and retention practices. Phase I of the project ended July 31; the work is continuing.
