How to Cover Nature Crime | Mongabay Webinars

How can journalists report on nature crime and other criminal activity that affects the environment, as well as the people who live in and depend on these ecosystems? What tools, collaborations and reporting approaches are needed to uncover illegal logging, mining, drug trafficking, and other threats to ecosystems and Indigenous and local communities? Drawing on reporting by Mongabay’s Nature Crime fellows in Mongabay Latam and Mongabay Indonesia, the discussion explores what journalists can learn from their methods, tools, and field experience. Joining the panel are: Daniela Quintero Díaz - Investigations Editor, Mongabay Latam Richaldo Hariandja - Solutions Editor, Mongabay Indonesia Sources: Data journalism reveals nature crimes throughout the Amazon: https://mongabay.org/impact/data-jour...
