Reporting on violence and emergencies: regional media conference for South-east and East Asia
05-10-2011 Event
The media of East Asia, South-east Asia and the Pacific have an important role to play in covering conflict, violence and the issues faced by vulnerable groups. At times, reporting on these situations puts the media's own safety at risk. Bringing together senior representatives of media organizations from the region, a conference hosted by the ICRC aims to advance discussion on these topics and facilitate the sharing of best practices and recommendations.
