Ethical reporting on children in the media




A group of professionals in the field of journalism, law, PR, psychology and photo journalism jointly created the first Guidebook on ethical reporting on children in the media. They are firmly committed to the idea that ethical reporting is a “Mission Possible”.

Words are the strongest weapon in the hands of the media. Words can help and at the same time inflict irreparable damage to those affected, if improperly used. This applies with full force when covering child-related topics.
Are we careful enough when we report on topics related to children?

A Guidebook on ethical reporting on children in the media was created in cooperation between UNICEF and AEJ-Bulgaria.
