Newsrooms in the U.S. are increasingly concerned about the safety of their journalists, especially in the face of rising threats against them. Few newsrooms are actively implementing holistic safety strategies for their teams, ones that consider identity and the interconnected nature of mental health, physical safety, and digital safety. During this session sponsored by the International Women’s Media Foundation, our panelists will talk about the safety strategies that they are adopting in their newsrooms, particularly for the most vulnerable: women, people of color, and LGBTQIA+ journalists.
