Just discovered From the Ground, a newsfeed pooling information and news from the major field-based NGOs. This is a project of the International Crisis Group and Human Rights Watch. They say,

“As news organisations rapidly cut down on their foreign-based staff, the role of field-based NGOs has become more important than ever. FromtheGround.net (FtG) is an attempt to gather all the material these organisations produce on a single site, and to make it more accessible.”

They hope to expand the list of NGOs features in due course. A welcome service to all news junkies and advocates of global engagement.
