EJN presents new migration reporting guidelines to meeting of Finnish journalists

Can you support the EJN by translating resources into new languages?

Since the last newsletter, EJN supporters in Colombia, Czech Republic and Portugal have volunteered to translate our hate speech test and migration reporting guidelines into new languages. You will be able to find them in our infographics section in the coming days. If you would like to support of work by translating our resources into more languages then please get in touch. Thank you all for your ongoing support.
