Mental Health of Journalists in Exile: Facing Multiple Crises Simultaneously
Tuesday October 8, 2024 14:00 - 14:50 CEST
English
Session document
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.

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
English
Session document
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
English
Session document
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
English
Session document
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
English
Session document
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.

Session document
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.

Presencia, curiosidad y asombro. En esta actividad exploraremos temas de salud mental, agotamiento y exigencia en el periodismo, atravesados por la velocidad y preeminencia de las redes y la epidemia de desinformación. Esto lo haremos mediante técnicas contemplativas, journaling, diálogo generativo y activación creativa. También presentaremos “Nos une el medio”, una experiencia de sanación con la escritura co-creada por dos comunicadores colombianos, para luego tender un puente hacia una actividad práctica de creación narrativa de autoficción sobre el yo y cómo silenciar las voces que nos habitan para volver a escucharnos.

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
Español
Session document
¿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
Español
Session document
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)

Assume the Best: How a New Theory of Humanity Is Changing How We Report, Respond, and Run Newsrooms
Wednesday October 9, 2024 13:30 - 14:00 CEST
English
Session document
Humans are inherently selfish and prone to violence. We need governments, armies and police to maintain order. But those institutions are also corrupt and self-serving. Children are born naughty and are lazy at school unless teachers take a hard line. When they enter the workforce, their managers expect the same. Those are the assumptions that are baked into our societies and perpetuated by hard-nosed journalists. But what if those assumptions are wrong? If we really want to be unbiased as journalists, we need to balance our powerful negativity bias with a dose of positivity. That should make for more hopeful stories, healthier journalists and happier newsrooms and audiences.

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.

Journalism’s Open Secret: When Alcohol Use Turns into Abuse
Wednesday October 9, 2024 16:00 - 16:50 CEST
English
Session document
Alcohol has long been ubiquitous in journalism culture: From movies where editors toast a big scoop to happy hours to the late-night crew hustling over to catch last call after a long night. But the line between use and abuse can quickly blur, especially for individuals with high-pressure, high-stakes, trauma-exposed jobs like journalists.

This panel discussion will feature substance abuse experts and psychologists who can help the audience identify patterns that indicate substance abuse, alcohol’s long-term effects on mental health, productive ways to cope with trigger points and stress, and where to find assistance. NPCJI Executive Director Beth Francesco would moderate this conversation in which participants could ask questions anonymously.

  1. Renacer del burnout: La urgente necesidad de protocolos de prevención en equipos periodísticos
    Cristina Castellanos
    En 2024, sufrí un burnout: un agotamiento físico, mental y emocional que me llevó a un colapso mental. Ignoré los síntomas previos en el ámbito laboral, acumulando estrés con taquicardias, problemas respiratorios, eccemas, dolores de estómago, bruxismo, insomnio, y sensación depresiva. Durante una crisis mental, la culpa es común y los signos iniciales suelen pasarse por alto debido a nuestro ritmo de vida acelerado. Tras tres meses de baja laboral y con el apoyo de mi círculo seguro, ejercicio físico y mi psicóloga, me recuperé. Este proceso me ha llevado a reflexionar sobre la importancia de priorizar la salud mental.
  2. El pódcast: Una solución efectiva para los tabú en salud mental
    Zaida Piñeros
    Cómo la realización de un pódcast aporta soluciones a los tabús en salud mental de los pacientes y aquellos que tienen dudas de consultar. También se contará el caso del primer episodio del pódcast "Conéctate con tu salud mental", la forma en que la paciente contó su temor de ir a consulta y cómo al final se convenció a partir de los consejos y argumentos de los especialistas en salud mental. Se enseñarán elementos prácticos y técnicos para que los especialistas participen en los pódcast y el poder de los argumentos para convencer.
  3. ¿Cómo cubrir una cumbre de cambio climático de manera saludable?
    Judit Alonso
    Soy periodista freelance y cubro medio ambiente y cambio climático desde hace 8 años. He cubierto de manera presencial de manera seguida 5 cumbres de Naciones Unidas sobre cambio climático (COP). A lo largo de estos años he establecido un método para cubrir este evento de manera menos estresante (Manual de supervivencia) y en vistas de la próxima celebración de la COP30 en Brasil, en 2025, comparto mi experiencia y consejos prácticos de cómo cubrir esta conferencia de una manera más saludable.

  5. Caja de herramientas
    Victoria Miliano
    La presentación busca equipar a los participantes con herramientas prácticas y teóricas para mejorar la gestión de equipos, la comunicación y el desarrollo personal y grupal, todo con un enfoque valiente y orientado al crecimiento continuo.
  6. El potencial del counseling como herramienta para promover el bienestar en las redacciones periodísticas
    Belinda Calderón, Fabiola Aponte
    El trabajo periodístico es, por naturaleza, exigente y demandante. Los profesionales de los medios de comunicación se enfrentan a diario a plazos ajustados, presiones editoriales, cobertura de eventos traumáticos y entornos de trabajo acelerados. Estas condiciones pueden generar altos niveles de estrés, ansiedad e incluso burnout, afectando negativamente su salud mental y bienestar general.
    En este contexto, el counseling se presenta como una herramienta valiosa para apoyar a los trabajadores de la prensa en el cuidado de su salud mental. Esta sesión tiene como objetivo explorar el potencial del counseling como herramienta para promover el bienestar en las redacciones periodísticas e identificar los posibles síntomas que pueden poner en riesgo a los profesionales del periodismo que están a las puertas de un burnout.
  7. El mundo de las emociones
    Ximena Alejandra
    Es muy importante que los periodistas puedan conocer y entender sus emociones. Sin embargo, hay una carencia de educación emocional a nivel mundial, más si hablamos de América Latina. En esta charla verás una pincelada de qué son las emociones y cómo reconocerlas, y verás algunas opciones de actividades para apaciguar sus emociones.

Cómo dejar de ser nuestros peores críticos: El poder de la amabilidad y la compasión en el día a día
Wednesday October 9, 2024 19:30 - 20:20 CEST
Español
Session document
El objetivo de este taller es cultivar una mirada más amable en el entorno muchas veces competitivo y deshumanizante de la redacción. La compasión es un antídoto frente a la desesperanza y la autocrítica que a menudo nos acorrala como periodistas, y constituye una fuente natural de fortaleza interior. Es una expresión de nuestra capacidad básica de cuidado a nosotros mismos y a los demás, y puede entrenarse con herramientas sencillas y con respaldo científico. La compasión genuina no es lástima o debilidad, sino la valentía de enfrentarse al sufrimiento en lugar de huir de él. Se apoya en el reconocimiento de que el malestar de los demás es muy semejante al propio.

En el taller aprenderemos qué es la compasión hacia los demás y hacia uno mismo/a y cómo puede beneficiarnos en nuestro trabajo como periodistas. Cómo usar la autocompasión como herramienta motivadora frente a la autocrítica. Cómo despertar el instinto naturalmente compasivo cuando compite con otras respuestas habituales, como el miedo, y herramientas para incrementar la empatía y conectar con uno mismo y con los demás

We will explore why it is important to assess these and provide applied examples of practice. We will then discuss real-life examples of how we work as psychologists to support journalists, including working with contributors, dealing with potentially traumatic issues, and how reflection can be used as a support.

Session document
In this case study session, we share and analyze the experience of the feminist digital media outlet "Alharaca" (El Salvador) and our collective approach to addressing mental health in the workplace. We will explore how we have created a culture of care among journalists and shifted towards viewing mental health care as a team issue, where the newsroom becomes a primary space for support and accompaniment when facing the emotional and psychological challenges posed by working in high-risk contexts with restrictions on freedom of expression, as is the case in El Salvador. We will also discuss strategies to fund this component and how we made it an integral part of our operations and budgets.

English
Session document

  1. Using Virtual Reality in Safety Training to Build Journalists' Mental Resilience in War Zones
    Katerina Sergatskova
    This lightning talk is focused on mental health support for journalists working and living in war zones. You will learn how 2402 Foundation, a non-profit initiative launched in the first days of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, provides essential mental health training and support to media professionals facing extreme stress and trauma. We build a safety culture and use technologies like AI and virtual reality to make the learning process more effective as the full-scale war demands innovative and sufficient solutions.
  2. Mental Disorder Stigmatization and Journalism
    Fira Abdurachman
    This lightning talk presents findings from recent digital research published in a national accreditation journal, focusing on how journalists often use terms related to mental disorders to sensationalize unusual behavior. Instead of offering support, these portrayals create a parade of stigma. This session will explore how journalists can shift away from harmful stereotypes and promote more responsible, supportive coverage of mental health issues. For more details, access the research https://ejournal.uika-bogor.ac.id/index.php/Hearty/article/view
  3. Beyond the Headlines: Addressing the Mental Health Needs of Media Workers in Conflict Zones
    David Amiryan and Seda Muradyan
    The Public Journalism Club's research on the 2020 war in Nagorno-Karabakh, followed by the forced deportation of 120,000 Armenians from the region in 2023, has highlighted the intense and multifaceted challenges faced by journalists operating in this conflict zone as well as when covering post-war developments. This session will shine a light on the unique and often underreported research findings of the obstacles they face for self-care or mental care activities. Expect practical recommendations tailored for media workers on strategies to safeguard their mental well-being in high-stress environments. In addition, there will be actionable suggestions for media managers on how to institutionalize mental health support and manage professional burnout within their organizations effectively.
  4. From Nigeria to Africa: Influencing Perceptions on Mental Health
    Gbenga Adekeye
    In this lightning talk, we will explore how innovative Nigerian and African journalism is transforming perceptions of mental health across the continent. I will highlight impactful case studies to demonstrate how storytelling, social media campaigns, and anonymous platforms are breaking down stigma and fostering open discussions. The talk will also emphasize the importance of supporting journalists in their mental health journey, ensuring they can continue to be powerful advocates for change. Join us to discover the role of media in creating a more informed and empathetic society regarding mental health in Africa.
  5. The Additional Burden of Environmental Reporting: How to Handle It?
    Irene Baños Ruiz
    Climate and environmental journalists face a daunting challenge: dealing with the emotional burden of reporting on a life threat with seemingly no remedy. As they navigate a relentless stream of catastrophic news, many experience frustration and exhaustion. Constant exposure to these distressing realities adds to precarious working conditions and dwindling public trust.
    How to foster resilience among climate and environmental journalists, and ensure that those reporting on the planetary crisis can continue to inform and inspire action without compromising their own well-being?
  6. The Power of Owning Your Own Narrative
    Klaudia Lagozinski
    Writing about your own mental health issues? About self-doubt, depression, medication, therapy & ADHD? Doing that, you put yourself in a vulnerable spot. Klaudia did it despite worries of being stigmatized or taken less seriously as a journalist and news desk manager. She realized: her doubts were unfounded. Instead, she had encouraging interactions afterwards, both with colleagues and readers. In this lightning talk she shares how she used her journalistic writing and research skills and introspection to create space for more discourse about mental health.
  7. Embracing the Hunter Mindset: 5 strategies for ADHD journalists
    Marguerite Meyer and Patrick Boehler
    This lightning talk explores the hunter vs. farmer hypothesis of ADHD, which posits that ADHD traits were advantageous for hunters in ancient societies but may pose challenges in modern, "farmer"-oriented work environments. Speakers will discuss how journalists with ADHD can leverage their unique "hunter" strengths, such as hyperfocus, creativity, and adaptability, while navigating potential obstacles. Through personal anecdotes and practical tips, they will share their learnings and strategies for avoiding burnout, maintaining work-life balance, and harnessing the sprint-rest cycle for productivity.
  8. Organizational Actions to Support Journalists
    Valérie Bélair-Gagnon
    This session will offer practical insights into how organizations can effectively support journalists, drawing from key takeaways in the Happiness in Journalism book. Explore actionable strategies and examples of how organizations can foster a supportive environment to enhance journalists' well-being and resilience.

Session document
En ocasiones, al terminar una investigación en la que trabajamos arduamente, nos damos cuenta que el impacto que generó fue mínimo. ¿Cómo continuamos después de ese silencio? ¿Cómo salvaguardamos la ilusión por nuestra profesión a pesar de sentirnos desconectados de quienes nos leen, a pesar del burnout, la explotación laboral y el agotamiento? ¿Cómo encontramos un propósito en las historias que contamos?

Creemos que una forma de revalorizar lo que hacemos es regresando a la calle, a la presencialidad. En este panel, tres periodistas conversaremos sobre cómo llevar el trabajo al ámbito creativo y presencial nos ayuda a reconectar con otros y aliviar la frustración. Esto acompañado de una psicóloga que explicará cómo estos esfuerzos pueden brindarnos bienestar.

Qué deberían saber los psicólogos para ayudar a periodistas
Thursday October 10, 2024 18:30 - 19:20 CEST
Español
Session document
La Fundación Internacional de las Mujeres en los Medios (IWMF, por sus siglas en inglés) proporciona recursos de seguridad holísticos e informados por la identidad a periodistas y medios de comunicación, incluyendo asistencia de emergencia para que periodistas que han vivido eventos traumáticos puedan acceder a servicios de salud mental. En los últimos años, hemos visto un aumento significativo en la demanda de apoyo terapéutico, incluyendo la necesidad de incrementar el número de psicólogos que entienden los riesgos ocupacionales de ser periodista. La IWMF ha colaborado con Vinland Solutions, con el apoyo de la UNESCO, para desarrollar un manual internacional destinado a capacitar a psicólogos especializados en estrés postraumático para ofrecer una atención adecuada y eficaz a los periodistas. Únete a nosotros en este taller facilitado por la IWMF y liderado por Ana Zellhuber, donde compartiremos las conclusiones clave para promover el bienestar de los periodistas.
