About the Sir Harry Evans Investigative Journalism Fund

In a landmark partnership between Tina Brown CBE and her family, Reuters and Durham University, the Sir Harry Investigative Journalism Fund has established a prestigious Fellowship in investigative journalism, hosted in partnership with Reuters' senior investigative and editorial teams, following a competitive award process.

The Fund, which has already received over $7M in pledges, including a $2M endowment from Thomson Reuters, also establishes an annual Summit for global leaders across media, broadcasting, investigative journalism, and related disciplines.

Durham was crucial for me...you would sit at dinner next to a Physician, a Musician, people from other subject areas and talk. There was a collision of all different disciplines. By talking, you were already better educated.

Harry cast an immense shadow and his spirit hovers today, stronger than ever. Talent drew alongside and thrived under his leadership; alchemy simply unfurled. Harry’s boundless curiosity, dogged determination and unwavering courage made one feel deeply human and proud. Our family and everyone involved with this initiative believes it will attract and inspire individuals who truly believe in the future of journalism. Harry could never have wished for a finer narrative.
