Program

For three days, journalists will meet other knowledgeable mediators of information from different regions of the world in Innsbruck. In conversations with colleagues and other experts, visitors find out what is going on behind the scenes of the information on international events, which is often hastily and superficially conveyed, and can contribute.

Current social, political and cultural developments are the focus of the debates, from book presentations, exhibitions, doc-films and audio features. The Journalismusfest Innsbruck opens a window to the complex present in which we live.

What We Don’t See

Blind Spots in Crisis Coverage

Conversation

What remains unseen when we cover a crisis? Experts will discuss blind spots in coverage – caused by specific editorial procedures, approaches and perspectives. Here, we focus on what usually remains invisible. Analysing concrete examples from Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Jordan, it becomes clear that many realities escape public perception.
