Inter Press Service (abbreviated: IPS) is a global news agency. Its main focus is the production of independent news and analysis about events and processes affecting economic, social and political development.
The agency has established a niche in the international mediascape, not only by providing professional reporting on the Global South, civil society, and globalization, but also by covering topics in a more in-depth way than is common in the mainstream news.
In the opinion of one commentator, "IPS (Inter Press Service) is probably still the largest and most credible of all 'alternatives' in the world of news agencies."
