When a disaster strikes, most people run as far away from the "danger zone" as possible. Journalists, however, do the opposite. They run towards the disaster, led by fearless determination and the hope of capturing an exclusive story. So, how do journalists stay safe while chasing a story that exposes them to danger? How do reporters know how to spot a potential risk before it poses a real threat? And how do leading news organisations protect their staff on assignment? Join former news producer and Director of HP Risk Management, Colin Pereira, as he shares the role media safety specialists play in exercising the due diligence that helps keep journalists safe while they're on the job. Because it doesn't matter if you're a journalist reporting from an international warzone or a domestic hospital ward, assessing risks and challenges is all part of chasing a good story.
