International Network of Street Papers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The International Network of Street Papers (INSP) is an organization of street papers that provide employment opportunities, community, and a voice to homeless and other economically vulnerable people. It spans 94 papers from 36 countries,[1] in total selling about 32 million copies each year. INSP was founded in July 1994 and the network was initially managed by The Big Issue. INSP's headquarters are in Glasgow, Scotland. The network organizes a yearly conference.[2][3][4][5] It also supports new street papers in the developing world and runs the Street News Service (SNS). In 2008 it began giving annual awards for top street newspaper journalism in several categories.[6][7] INSP cofounder Mel Young also organizes the annual Homeless World Cup.[8]
