In 2017, a Varkey Foundation survey of 20,000 young people across the globe found that 83% of respondents think that terrorism made them fearful for the future - more than any other factor, including climate change and war. Many of the violent attacks we see playing out today are at least partly conceived with media coverage in mind.
According to the 2020 UNESCO Director-General Report on the Safety of Journalists and the Danger of Impunity, a total of 24 of the 156 journalists and media workers killed during 2018-2019, lost their lives to attacks by groups engaged in violent extremism as well as terrorism. Journalism educators and trainers have a role to play in supporting the quality of reporting on this complex topic, as well as in raising journalists' ability to protect themselves while covering terrorist attacks.
Building on a previous UNESCO publication Terrorism and the media: A Handbook for journalists (2017), this new manual is designed primarily for media trainers and journalism educators.
