Surrounded by inspiring women - & a rather inspiring man! - journalism festival #ijf24 today: brave, brilliant client Maria Ressa; Carine Kanimba, who campaigned for the return home of her kidnapped father; Dr. Julie Posetti International Center for Journalists; Jodie Ginsberg Committee to Protect Journalists; Laurent Richard Forbidden Stories

For #ifj24 , I was lucky enough to be able to interview Dmitri Muratov, Nobel Peace Prize and editor-in-chief of Novaya Gazeta. A lesson in courage from the man who, from Moscow, despite threats, murder and attempts to poison his colleagues, continues to fight to inform us.
