Reporting violence against women

Join us for an empowering online event, 'Reporting violence against women'.

From Russell Brand to Sean Hogg having his rape conviction overturned, stories about violence against women are everywhere. These are some of the trickiest and most sensitive subjects we cover as journalists.

This Zoom workshop will cover all the issues that journalists need to understand how to do justice to these important stories.

Jo Zawadkza from Zero Tolerance will set the scene and outline all the issues that are classified as violence against women.

Claire Thomson from Rape Crisis Scotland will talk about sexual violence and the new justice bill.

Nyla Khan from Universal Truth will talk about the importance of including the voices of victim-survivors and how to work with charities and campaign groups in this area.

Chaired by Women in Journalism Scotland committee member Catriona MacPhee
