Media debates its role in reporting conflicts and disasters

Hosted by the ICRC, the Asia Pacific Media Conference saw 23 senior media representatives from 12 countries gather in Hiroshima, Japan from 26-28 November 2014.

The deliberations lasted a day and a half and contributed to advancing discussions on the media's role in reporting on man-made and natural disasters in today's communication environment as well as on how professional journalism can build credibility and trust in the age of citizen journalism and social media.
