The Walkley Foundation and Scanlon Foundation present - Media training: Inclusive reporting that represents Australia's diversity Session 2: Engaging with communities This is the second in a series of professional development webinars for Australian journalists to bring greater diversity and inclusion to their reporting, presented by the Walkley Foundation and the Scanlon Foundation. This session focuses on engaging with communities, with a conversation between Julie Szego and Jieh-Yung Lo. In this session we explore how media reporting and storytelling can encompass cultural nuance and the authentic representation of Australia’s cultural diversity. This is increasingly important, as evident by the challenges faced by Chinese-Australians (and, to an extent, Asian-Australians) in the context of Australia’s bilateral relationship with China and the COVID-19 pandemic. Julie Szego, in conjunction with advice from Jieh-Yung, recently wrote an extended essay focusing on the experience of the Chinese diaspora living in suburban Melbourne. Cultural storytelling by those from outside the community requires an awareness of one’s own cultural evolution and how that informs our views and interpretations. Hosting the webinar and moderating the Q&A will be Media Diversity Australia representative and media, communications and advocacy professional, Akashika Mohla.
