Environmental journalism: pursuing quality coverage of a global crisis

A recent study published by IPI under the title “The change we
need: Strategies to support climate and environmental journalism”
critically analyses different approaches adopted by media to
produce and deliver fact-based, public-interest climate news.


The study also finds a clear need for more resources, strategies,
training, and investment to ensure climate and environmental
journalism reaches audiences and contributes to finding solutions
to the crisis.


In this episode, experts on climate and environmental journalism
discuss how to ensure the success of our environmental coverage,
which types of content and formats address the needs of our
audiences, which type of impact are we looking at generating and,
most importantly, how to mobilize the necessary resources.
