A new home for the news community.
ReNEWS sets the stage for vital conversations about socio-cultural challenges: how they affect our newsrooms, and how we report on them. We held our second (virtual) event on Thursday, April 8, 2021. Subscribe to our newsletter below to be the first to know the date of our next event.
Our upcoming (virtual) conversation
A conversation on the situation in Afghanistan today, and what we can do to provide desperately needed mental health support, safety support, and care.
Our Speakers

All donations received in support of the ReNEWS/AFP fundraiser will be earmarked by the Rory Peck Trust, a London based charity, to create a mental health fund specifically for Afghan journalists who have fled Afghanistan.
