About M100 Young European Journalists Workshop 2023
Climate change poses new challenges not only to society, politics, and the economy but also to journalism. Climate journalism, until recently a marginal phenomenon, is increasingly moving into the focus of media houses and editorial offices.
Climate change is one of the greatest threats of the 20th century, affecting all aspects of our lives: society, the economy, supply chains, work, agriculture, health, food, and mobility. It is fuelling fear, insecurity, social division, lack of freedom, migration, and poverty – and thus the health and resilience of democracy around the world.
Program Details
In this context, high-quality, fact-based, and objective journalism is particularly important. How we report on climate change, its consequences, and societal options for action is crucial to addressing this major threat.
Meanwhile, voices are being raised that journalism needs to change in order for this to happen. This is because journalism, especially crisis reporting, has traditionally focused on covering events rather than processes.
Eligibility
