Indigenous Voices on Climate Communication

Yale Program on Climate Change Communication (YPCCC)

"How can Indigenous knowledge systems, rooted in oral traditions, deep relationships with the Earth, and community-led action be used to communicate effectively on climate change? On October 28, 2025, Dr. Lagipoiva Cherelle Jackson, an Indigenous climate journalist and scholar from Samoa, moderated a conversation with Dr. Ihirangi Heke, an expert on health and the environment of Māori descent, and Rahiem Eleazer, the Environmental Liaison for the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation. Drawing from distinct Indigenous communities and histories, the speakers explored how their cultural traditions and worldviews guide their approaches to addressing climate issues within their own communities and in collaboration with others."

Fellowships & Grants

R. James Travers Foreign Corresponding Fellowship

"The Fellowship was created to help finance a significant foreign reporting project by a Canadian journalist — staffer, freelancer or student — working in any medium. This international reporting bursary reflects the importance that Travers attached to his six years reporting from Africa and the Middle East. He believed Canadians deserve first-hand, in-depth coverage of important stories outside our borders. He argued passionately that it is crucial for Canadian reporters to bear witness — because in our interconnected world, foreign news is local news. The Fellowship provides an annual award of up to $25,000 to cover travel, research and reporting expenses and a stipend for a journalist." Deadline: Jan. 12, 2026.

Barcelona International Photography Festival on Human Rights and Global Justice

"The Barcelona International Photography Festival on Human Rights and Global Justice aims to offer a perspective on global problems and their root causes, using photography as an educational tool for global justice. Photography is the only way to show reality as it is, without flaws or lies, capable of contributing to a better understanding of the world and of forming a critical and committed citizenry that strives to advance toward greater levels of social justice, environmental sustainability, and the exercise of all rights within the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). To this end, every year during the months of December and early January, large-format photography takes over the streets of Barcelona. It does so with thirteen large-format exhibitions spread across all the districts of the Catalan capital. Ten of them are selected from the competition held a few months beforehand [2025 Deadline: Oct. 10], where we seek photographic projects on human rights and global justice, prioritizing themes related to environmental justice, gender justice, social justice, and economic justice. The other three are exhibitions outside of competition."

How investigative journalists can fight back against health misinformation

The panel "Mis- and Disinformation about Health is Killing Us. What Should Journalists Be Doing about It?" presented at the 2024 International Journalism Festival in Perugia, Italy, explored how certain industries are exploiting a vacuum of trusted health information to misinform and disinform the public about their products and policies. Moderated by Pulitzer Center senior editor Susan Ferriss and featuring Will Fitzgibbon of The Examination; Chrissie Giles, deputy editor of the London-based Bureau of Investigative Journalism; and Mia Malan, founder and editor-in-chief of the South Africa-based Bhekisisa Centre for Health Journalism, the panelists "discussed their experiences working on impactful investigations and shared advice for journalists who want to cover health issues but don’t know where to start."
