Mental Health of Journalists in Exile: Facing Multiple Crises Simultaneously
Tuesday October 8, 2024 14:00 - 14:50 CEST
In the last few years, many journalists and editorial offices have been forced to move out of Russia and Belarus due to repressive actions and government censorship. Journalists forced to leave their countries and move elsewhere are currently facing multiple crises at the same time: burnout, despair, inability to change the situation, cancel culture, isolation from colleagues (as many teams are distributed), crises of emigration, and difficulties in integrating into societies in new countries, etc.

Our team of psychologists based in Lithuania has worked with journalists in exile for over 1.5 years, providing individual sessions, support groups, training, and mental health surveys. We’d like to share our experience and observations and hear the opinions of our colleagues facing the same issues.

Narratives of Change and Coping Among TV Reporters Covering the War on Drugs
Tuesday October 8, 2024 14:00 - 14:50 CEST
The Philippines braced for "change" in 2016 when the "war on drugs” began. The mental health impact of this “war” was among the things that journalists did not see coming.  Using the constructivist narrative perspective, the study explored stories of stress and coping of six television crime reporters covering the war on drugs. Data was gathered through individual in-depth interviews, and was analyzed using McAdams' context of discovery.

Does Constructive Journalism Protect Us from Burnout and Depression?
Tuesday October 8, 2024 14:00 - 14:50 CEST
Reporting on crises and wars can be depressing - not only for the audience, but also for the media makers themselves. Constructive Journalism promises a way out. Instead of simply naming problems, it focuses on solutions. Instead of polarizing, it wants to show different perspectives and enable constructive dialogue. How does that effect the mental health of media makers? Let’s discuss it!

The Challenges and Importance of Boundaries in Dealing with Vulnerable Sources in Journalism
Tuesday October 8, 2024 14:00 - 14:50 CEST
In ethical journalism, empathy and a responsible approach to sources are of great importance. But what does that mean?

Friederike Engst, Psychological Psychotherapist and Trainer at DART Center Europe and Helpline Germany and Tabea Grzeszyk repeatedly face questions addressing professional distance, doubts, and uncertainty in their respective roles. We want to discuss examples and the individual challenges of working with vulnerable protagonists (e.g., moral injury, vicarious trauma, feelings of guilt), the importance of boundaries—including one’s own—and the circumstances under which they might blur. We will talk about how to create a safe environment and minimize the risk of causing additional harm.

Mitigating Against Vicarious Trauma
Tuesday October 8, 2024 15:00 - 15:50 CEST
Vicarious trauma is exposure to someone else’s trauma. Many journalists are exposed regularly to violent, distressing or graphic material in different forms of media - from videos to court reports, researching abuses, to hearing accounts from survivors of trauma.

One year on* from the start of the Israel-Gaza war, Headlines Network will explore how vicarious trauma has become a threat to newsrooms.

In this session, we will share individual experiences and insights, helping our colleagues recognise how to mitigate secondary trauma, and look after themselves and others if they are exposed.

Hannah Storm and John Crowley from Headlines Network have published a resource guide on vicarious trauma and will draw from this during this workshop.

Online Abuse Self-Defense: Don’t Forget Psychosocial Support
Tuesday October 8, 2024 15:00 - 15:50 CEST
Online abuse is a pervasive and growing problem in the journalism industry, causing self-censorship and psychological damage. Yet few journalists receive training on how to defend themselves against online abuse. Even digital security training, while offering critical guidance on protecting sensitive accounts or evading surveillance, rarely addresses the psychosocial aspects of self-defense.

In this workshop, we’ll create a safe space for journalists and their allies to exchange practical strategies for navigating online abuse, with an emphasis on psychosocial support. We’ll discuss self-care, allyship, strategies for talking to friends, family, and employers, accessing clinical support, and psychological first aid.

Reporting Responsibly on Campus Suicide: Student Experiences Reporting on Suicide on University Campuses
Tuesday October 8, 2024 16:00 - 16:50 CEST
This case study will explore student editors’ experiences reporting on four suicides during one year at The Stanford Daily, culminating in the death of Stanford student and athlete Katie Meyer, which made national headlines and caused a reckoning with mental health on campus.

Additionally, this session will introduce Reporting Responsibly on Campus Suicide (RROCS) as a unique new tool designed specifically for student journalists covering suicide. Suicide is a leading cause of death among college students. On college campuses, student newspapers often find themselves at the center of such crises, and student journalists play a key role in covering mental health on campus.

This session will include Tammer Bagdasarian, a co-founder of RROCS and student journalist.

El poder de una pausa. ¿Cómo es tomarse un descanso en la carrera o un período sabático?
Tuesday October 8, 2024 19:30 - 20:20 CEST
¿Alguna vez pensaste en tomarte una pausa en tu carrera, descansar, tener más tiempo para pensar ideas o estar con tu familia y ver hacia dónde redirigir tu desarrollo profesional? 
Somos Gabi Manuli (GIJN) y Romina Colman (ex OCCRP) y ambas decidimos, en distintos contextos y por diferentes razones, parar. Después de más de una década en GIJN, Gabi se tomó un sabático de unos meses para bajar el ritmo, recargar energía y explorar nuevos caminos creativos. Romina, por su parte, renunció a su posición full-time para descansar, explorar otros proyectos, hacer actividades creativas y decidir su próximo paso. 
En esta sesión queremos compartir herramientas, aprendizajes y desafíos en nuestros recorridos. ¿Cómo resistir a la cultura de la productividad hasta en nuestro tiempo libre? ¿Qué aprendimos de estos meses?  Sabemos que tomarse un sabático, o renunciar a tu trabajo es un privilegio que no siempre es posible. Pero si creemos que todos podemos encontrar maneras de sumar un descanso en nuestro día a día.

TRE®: Ejercicios para la liberacion del estres y el trauma
Tuesday October 8, 2024 19:30 - 20:20 CEST
TRE es una serie de 7 ejercicios que ayuda a liberar la tensión profunda del cuerpo mediante un proceso de temblor muscular auto controlado. Este temblor, llamado Temblor Neurogénico, es un mecanismo natural para reestablecer el equilibrio del sistema nervioso liberando la energía que quedó bloqueada como consecuencia de la situación traumática o el estrés crónico.

TRE trabaja en sentido opuesto a los métodos tradicionales de tratamiento como la psicoterapia o la meditación. En lugar de modificar los patrones de pensamiento para llegar a la relajación, al relajar el cuerpo el estado emocional cambia, los pensamientos se modifican. Una vez aprendida, puede realizarse de manera autónoma y autogestiva permitiendo que el sistema nervioso, el cuerpo y las emociones recuperen un su natural armonia y flexibilidad.

Para una óptima experiencia de la sesión, pedimos a todas las personas participantes lo siguiente:
  • Preparar un espacio físico en el que puedan realizar ejercicios de pie y de suelo.
  • Tener un mat o manta para acostarse en el piso.
  • Usar ropa suelta
  • Tener a mano lo que consideren necesario para estar cómodos ( manta, almohadon , etc)

Aprendiendo a decir no
Tuesday October 8, 2024 19:30 - 20:20 CEST
Muchas veces decimos que sí, queriendo decir que no porque no queremos desagradar o que piensen que somos egoístas. Si decimos que sí a todo nos arriesgamos a llenarnos de trabajo, responsabilidades y preocupaciones que no nos pertenecen. Tampoco ayudamos a que las personas que nos piden favores todo el tiempo aprendan a valerse por sí mismas. En este taller, las personas participantes reciben técnicas para decir que no sin sentirse culpable o que están incomodando a los demás. Para ello, utilizaremos la creación artística para mejorar el bienestar emocional y mental y se sugiere que los participantes traigan papel sin lineas de cualquier y lápices de color –o plumones, crayones o pinturas o si no tienen que traigan café y una brochita.
