As conflicts escalate and tensions rise worldwide, telling the stories that matter has never been more challenging. How do you report when both sides point fingers? How do you gain access—or stay safe—when entering a conflict zone is dangerous or impossible? And how do you keep reporting when hostility toward journalists is growing, even in peaceful countries?

This conference dives into these questions through talks, panels, and hands-on workshops. Learn from award-winning correspondents, explore responsible and fearless reporting, and connect with fellow journalism students and media professionals across Europe.

Together, we’ll explore how to report responsibly, fearlessly, and safely – whether you’re on the frontlines or far from them.

“It was decided on that Sunday that there should not be a formal organisation, but an informal one. Each year one school would be the host for the annual meeting. The school would be responsible for the programme, etc. We did it that way, because I have had some experiences in international youth-work and saw what bureaucracy could do for an organisation.”Theo Dersjant, Founder of FEJS International
