Through BBC Media Action, Jo has trained journalists and broadcasters in Ukraine and Armenia in Trauma Reporting as well was working with journalists reporting from Beirut, Nigeria, Mexico City and Delhi plus NGO story teams, humanitarian workers and migrant women journalists. She’s the author of Trauma Reporting, A Journalist\u2019s Guide to Covering Sensitive Stories and the UNESCO document Safety of Journalists Covering Trauma and Distress, Do No Harm which was translated into seven languages. She\u2019s spoken at the United Nations in Bangkok and the World Health Organisation in Geneva about her work. She’s lectured at Princeton, Boston, Oxford and London Universities, delivering key notes from Ottawa to Oslo.<\/p>\n \u25c7Abstract<\/strong><\/p>\n Journalists are rarely trained in how to work sensitively and appropriately with vulnerable sources. They effectively, or not, ‘practice’ on the grieving public and hope their skills will improve through trial and error. Often under pressure, journalists can be working daily with people suffering grief, abuse, illness and experiences so extreme, they are making the news.\u00a0This creates risk.\u00a0Informed by trauma experts, clinicians, academics, psychologists and most importantly the insight from our interviewees, Trauma Reporting seeks to address this. It provides a framework for good practice which is relatable for journalists. It teaches trauma awareness; it equips them with key skills for working and interviewing sensitively; it encourages them to support each other by sharing their expertise and observations; it teaches self-care when being exposed to the distress of their contributors. It’s key message: do your job, do it well, do no harm.<\/p>\n \u25c7Organizer<\/b> \u25c7Inquiry<\/b> The B\u2019AI Global Forum will hold a lecture by Jo He<\/p>\n
