The mass extinction of species poses a threat to humanity as serious as climate change – yet it remains a frequently overlooked crisis. Journalists often find it challenging to cover topics related to biodiversity.
In this deep dive workshop at Museum Koenig Bonn – one of Germany’s leading natural history museums – journalists and researchers will work together to explore how to report on the biodiversity crisis and species conservation in a more in-depth and constructive way. Biodiversity researchers will provide insights into key developments in the species crisis and their impacts.
Journalists will present best-practice examples and discuss their experiences in reporting on biodiversity: What has worked well? What challenges have they faced? And when – if at all – does it make sense to consider the biodiversity and climate crises separately, or should we aim to present these environmental crises in a more connected way?
