Fusing journalism with art to counter news avoidance? That‘s what projects such as Live Magazine (🇫🇷), Spartacus (🇵🇱) or Inker (🇺🇦) are doing: bringing journalism on stage, mixing it with graphic fiction, art expos, lectures, dance and stand-up to attract new audiences.

“We need to do a better job at conveying multiple shades of gray.“ How often do you seek voices of peace in your reporting? Do you cover a third narrative amidst polarisation? Do you cover women as victims or survivors only or also as leaders and in “unusual“ roles?

There is a sense that podcasts have reached their peak. But Mukul Devichand The New York Times says that human attention to podcasts continues to grow and audio apps can be successful. Audio enables a special kind of connection and intimacy to the listeners. Quality and curation are key.

Most tech journalism is Western-led, but many more people live outside “the West“. Context News @iamtomiwa Anup Kaphle 🐐 Yasir Khan Srishti Jaswal say tech journalism should go beyond a beat and focus on how people’s lives are impacted. Local perspectives are often missing.

“There is an arms race between newsrooms to get the best automated data. But in the end it still depends on the human story.“ Benjamin Strick See useful tools for geo-journalism👇

Is 2024 the year democracy will fall off the cliff? Dr. Julie Posetti Maria Ressa International Journalism Festival “The fall is beginning and big tech have the power to stop it. If they just moderate their greed a bit, we could save democracy. But the distribution of journalism is not in our hands.“

Maria Ressa DW Volos “If each of us acts in his own reality, how do we come together and solve any problem? It’s like the Matrix meets the Truman Show. We are powering that engine, and we are performing in our own show, but we are not connecting.” International Journalism Festival

In the first months of Russia‘s full-scale invasion, Ukrainian newsrooms were operating in survival mode. But soon, holding authorities accountable and investigating corruption was back. And so was the pressure on journalists by the government.

From listening to how GenZ journalists are working in the media space, to understanding how we can decolonise media development and understanding what it really means to draw the line between journalism and activism, it has been an interesting time at #ijf24 in Perugia. DW Volos

Should right-wing extremists be given a platform on TV, podcasts etc or can journalists only lose? How big is the difference between what people want to versus what they should know? Very “dynamic” debate at re:publica #WhoCares

The new #WorldsOfJournalism study shows that in Germany, young professionals are scared away and editorial autonomy is decreasing. ”Journalism is not a reflection of society, but there are tendencies towards more diversity.” Wiebke Loosen & Anna von Garmissen re:publica.

This week in DC I got to work with DW trainee Annika Sost on her first video on the US election. Mentorship and developing talent is so much of what we're about at DW Deutsche Welle - it’s been a privilege being at both sides of it. Applications for Annika's program DW Akademie
