On World Mental Health Day, INSI is publishing Building a Newsroom Stress and Trauma Program, a step-by-step guide for news leaders on setting up support for journalists dealing with stress and trauma.
We live in challenging times. In country after country, authoritarian leaders are gaining ground.
There is a particular kind of violence in destroying a newsroom. It is not only the killing of people, nor even the obliteration of a building, but the deliberate erasure of memory and record of the slow, daily labour of bearing witness in a place where almost everything else has already been stripped away.
According to the CPJ, at least 263 journalists and media workers have been confirmed dead as of January 6, including 220 Palestinians, 2 Israelis, 6 Lebanese, 4 Iranian, and 31 Yemeni.
The International News Safety Institute (INSI) is deeply saddened by the death of our long-time colleague and friend, Nick Mosdell.
