When thrust into a crisis situation of any kind, many become conflict reporters overnight. Here are some resources for those reporting on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine:
- The International Center for Journalists’ (ICFJ) Pamela Howard Forum on Crisis Reporting is offering sessions in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese to help reporters inside and outside Ukraine better navigate the conflict. Their English-language forum includes a two-part safety and ethics training for journalists covering conflict, a session on the laws of war, and a panel discussion on covering the war in Ukraine.
- International Journalists’ Network (IJNet) is sharing guidance for journalists covering the war, in eight languages, including Russian. This daily-updated list of support and resources for journalists covering the invasion includes emergency assistance, independent media support, and more. They are amping up content production on the Russian version of IJNet, so journalists in exile and the region can get the help they need, including a webinar featuring journalists in Ukraine.
- Sérgio Spagnuolo has developed a new tool for surfacing reliable information about the Ukraine invasion. The Global Conflict Monitor is a web application that tracks over 150 trusted sources covering the war in Ukrainian, English and Russian. It allows easy, fast content discovery from vetted sources. In a conflict often described as an Information War, the Global Conflict Monitor is a critical way to combat disinformation.
