The International Network of Street Papers (INSP) is an organization that supports and develops street paper projects all over the world. It spans 120 papers from 40 countries,[1] with a combined readership of 6 million per edition.[2] 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.[3][4][5][6] 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.[7][8] INSP cofounder Mel Young also organizes the annual Homeless World Cup.[9]
