Book Synopsis

Bringing together 17 authors from diverse perspectives, Insights on Human Rights and Journalism offers an accessible introduction to the characteristics and complexities of reporting human rights issues in a changing media environment.

Chapters then focus on journalists who find themselves at the centre of human rights violations and explore the challenges they face when covering human rights abuses, including their own safety and responsibilities. The final section of the book scrutinises the mediaâs treatment of various human rights-related issues such as terrorism, missing people, climate change, and migration, and identifies weaknesses and gaps in their coverage.
