How does an editorial team focused on impact journalism operate, and what are the main challenges it faces in today’s media landscape?

On Monday, November 11, from 2 to 4 PM, the course “Impact Journalism: stories that make a difference” will take place. This is the third in a series of webinars within the Torino Impact Journalism initiative.

The webinar offers an opportunity to immerse in national and international impact journalism experiences, exploring how to integrate the approaches and strategies covered in previous sessions into daily journalistic practices. Through insights from journalists and industry experts, participants will discover firsthand accounts, practical advice, and case studies of successful initiatives.

This event is an integral part of the training program offered by the Italian Journalists’ Association and is open to both professionals and anyone interested in exploring this topic.
