Human rights reporting

This workshop took place on the 07.03. this year with Sara Creta. She is an award-winning photojournalist and documentary filmmaker, with extensive experience investigating human rights abuses. Over the past years she documented on -the-ground conditions in forced migration situation, human rights violation, crisis management and cultures in transitions.

We discussed the potential of journalism in contribution to human rights protection, awareness, and debated, in ignoring, silencing, or misrepresenting human rights issues around the world or, in extreme situations, in inciting hatred, genocide and crimes against humanity.

This broadcast provides an insight into how journalists translate human rights issues, revealing different reporting patterns and levels of detail in reporting, and suggesting different levels of engagement with human rights issues.
