    Masterclass: Environmental writing

    When 21 May 2025

    Where Online

    About

    The climate crisis is one of the biggest challenges we face to date. And writing about nature or the climate crisis can sometimes feel overwhelming. You might be wondering how to write about environmental issues in a way which compels people rather than alienates them.

    Inclusive Journalism Cymru will be looking at how to write about these issues in a compelling way, with tips and tricks from industry experts.

    Our special guests Durre Shahwar (editor, writer, PhD), Owen Sheers (novelist, poet, playwright) and Taylor Edmonds (poet, writer, facilitator) together bring many years of experience writing about nature across all genres.

    The event will take place on Zoom and you can register here. Everyone is welcome to attend, and the event is free and open to non-members, even if you’re not in or from Wales.

    Live real-time captioning will be available.

    This course aims to highlight the new professions and new European and international cooperation networks that are useful for Italian journalists.

    Data is presented regarding the importance of an ethical approach by journalists for information that contrasts the increase in fake news; data and projects related to the value of reading are explained, how the methods of consulting databases and digital and non-digital libraries have also changed; Italian, European and international projects are presented in which journalists can find new job opportunities in this phase of rapid and convulsive evolution of the publishing market (transition from paper to digital and synergies of multichannel and AI solutions such as new types of podcasts and mixed innovative and cutting-edge technological solutions etc.).

    Scientific studies are illustrated on how the way of writing and reading has changed, the value of reading, and data on how territorial information is changing; information is given on what European funds are available to the media and for the protection of copyright and sources and how they can be used. It is a course with training credits from the order of journalists.
