Philanthropist Judith Neilson announces $100m to establish a Sydney-based centre for “journalism and ideas.” Yes, $100m, to “celebrate and encourage quality journalism in Australia and the world through education and grants and by hosting lively events on the big issues of the day.”
Early priorities will include reporting on Asia, and journalists engaging with peers in the region.

The Judith Neilson Institute will be based in the hipster homeland of Chippendale, across the road from UTS, where there is journalism school which might be happy to help.
