English

Description

The media has an important role to play in changing perceptions and reshaping the conversations around migration. Sensationalist or over-simplified stories on migration or xenophobia can perpetuate or even encourage violence. It is therefore important to write about cross-border migration in a way that is responsible and educational. This guide was written with the understanding that journalists and editors work under immense pressure. It provides helpful guidelines when reporting on migration and pointers on how to avoid common pitfalls.
