Rethinking Journalists’ Mental Well-Being in Italy, Greece, and Portugal
Wednesday October 9, 2024 14:00 - 14:50 CEST
English
Session document
Journalists’ mental well-being is crucial for good journalism. But in some Southern European countries, this topic is still a taboo. The solutions aren’t straightforward, since every person deals with well-being differently, and the problems touch on systemic issues in the profession, such as precariousness and low incomes, which also need to be tackled for long-lasting well-being.

What are the main challenges that journalists’ mental health faces? What is being done already to solve them, and what is possible beyond existing solutions? We will find out more about three projects in Italy, Greece, and Portugal.
