This primer gives a background on the concepts of peace journalism as well as useful information in journalism in conflict situations, with additional guides on self-care for journalists covering conflict. This primer is the result of the longstanding experience of media women of Min-WoW and Isis International-Manila monitoring and analysing of the media in different parts of the world from a Southern feminist perspective. Moreover, it is the result of the three trainings we conducted in North-Western Mindanao, Philippines under “Women Making Airwaves for Peace” and what the training participants coming from different media organisations, NGOs and grassroots organisations found most helpful and accurate in their daily work as journalists or community women dealing with the media. This primer is geared towards media practitioners.
