PMA will be running two sessions during the conference:

  1. Podcasts: Going beyond the headlines

    When a big news story breaks, the audience ́s interest might be difficult to meet. In this session we will hear about how you can use podcasts to give more in-depth and context to big news stories, such as bushfires, disasters, erupting conflicts or political processes. With cases from the BBC, ABC and others.

    Presenters: Jonathan Aspinwall and Sam Bonham (BBC); Darshini Kandasamy (Trident Media).

  2. Journalism: Covering the uncovered 

    This session will discuss and examine the specific challenges of reporting from a country where the government does not allow a free flow of information. How do you get true and balanced reporting from a closed country? What ways can be used to inform the citizens when most outlets are strictly controlled? 

    Guests: Thomas Bärthleiner (DW Akademie); Adam Gemma (Democratic Voice of Burma); and David Hua (SBS). Moderator: Harry Lock (PMA).
