Thanks to the journalism festival #ijf24 for giving us the space to have this important conversation around extractive journalism. It was fantastic to be on a panel with Jessie Lau Yousra Elbagir Meera Senthilingam
If you missed our session you can watch it here:

Attendance at session on extractive journalism at #ijf24 is disproportionately female. No mention of “gender” in blurb.

Panel asks: “How can we navigate needs of our reporting and needs of those we are reported on?”

Really struck by how much interest in care is gendered

This is the kind of conversation we need to create a better journalism and stronger newsrooms in Australia.

Great panel with humbling journalists who reflect on their profession.

What’s extractive journalism?
“When industry of journalism hijacks the craft” Yousra Elbagir

“When you project your experiences on subjects of your reporting” Jessie Lau

“When you develop a clinical relationship with material” Ladan Anoushfar

Thrilled to be speaking at #ijf24 about extractive journalism with my incredible co-panelists Ladan Anoushfar Yousra Elbagir & Meera Senthilingam
