IPS Inter Press Service News Agency
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/crossover-dreams
A new blog by IPS writers about migration flows and the global economy. Anchored by Peter Costantini, IPS correspondent in Seattle, it is hosted on the Huffington Post, the fastest growing news site in the United States.

Migration is by definition a phenomenon that crosses borders and generates radically different perspectives among those touched by it. IPS writes about it regularly promoting news stories through the migration and refugees website and a newsletter . This new blog is an opportunity for IPS writers to get more personal - to include their own experiences and reflections about reporting migration from their communities and countries.
