As war and crisis unfold before our eyes, journalists carry the profound responsibility of documenting humanity in its most vulnerable moments, bearing witness to history and shaping how we understand conflict.
Join Lindsey Hilsum as she moderates a compelling discussion with Juliana Ruhfus and Manisha Ganguly, fellow experts in conflict and trauma. Together, they delve into the moral complexities, emotional toll, and often unseen impact of reporting from the frontlines, whether through the lens or on the page.
