Led by Sarah Malik, a Walkley-award winning Australian investigative journalist, author, television presenter, and Our Watch Fellow, this webinar will support journalists to gain a deeper understanding of the impacts of violence against women from diverse backgrounds, including how media narratives can either exacerbate or counteract these effects.

  • Mariam Veiszadeh, CEO Media Diversity Australia, Lawyer, Founder & Chair Islamophobia Register Australia
