NHPR's entry in this category reflects several ambitious, multi-media/digital reporting projects, some of which were a long time in planning. But an unprecedented series of events in 2020 - the global pandemic, a divisive election, and uprisings around racial injustice - challenged us to pivot again and again, often to digital-first journalism designed to shine a light on these events and inform our audience.
