Really great to be at @caj conference in Toronto, where my friend and colleague @cbcdaveseglins is officially launching his new project Trauma Aware Journalism; A News Industry Toolkit. Produced in partnership with @DartCenter@journalismforum@CBCNews
The Trauma Aware Journalism Toolkit is available at traumaawarejournalism.org
It’s a tremendous contribution to the ongoing and growing conversation on how to improve trauma coverage and also take care of the journalists assigned to the task.
Future Taking Care in News events will cover peer support and building supportive newsrooms, managing the ups and downs of freelance and temp work, and fostering inclusion and well-being in newsrooms.
Mary Ann Shadd Cary was the first Black woman to publish and edit a newspaper in North America. In her spirit, the centre will focus on journalism through education, equality and liberation. Students will help with our research projects... futurefunder.carleton.ca/cam…
All donations made between midnight tonight and 11:59 pm tomorrow will be matched dollar for dollar by @Carleton_U. The goal is to raise $5,000! #CdnMedia#JournalistSafety
I’m in DC this week at the @AEJMC conference, where I’m doing my first ever poster presentation. It outlines how I’ve tried to apply the principles of trauma-informed care in a journalism classroom setting. Poster designed by the amazing Sara Mizannojehdehi. @JSchool_CU
We are contributing valuable Canadian insight and context to the global conversation on journalism, mental health and well-being and exposure to trauma on the job. @cbcdaveseglins@journalismforum
