A little special presentation from the team at The Experts Podcast

Nic and Lanna have a look back at the recent #MeetTheMedia event that took place in Perth at the Australian Institute of Management WA. It was the first LIVE event that Media Stable have put on in eighteen months and it was wonderful to get back in front of the experts and media again.

There was a lot of takeaways but here is a few that Lanna and Nic took away.

Bob Vezera Kandetu, a former Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, who also served as Director General at the Namibia Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) and Sakeus Iikela, Secretary-General of the Namibia Media Professionals Union (Nampu), join FreeSpeak host Gwen Lister in a review of the impact of the just-concluded month-long strike by NBC journalists and workers.

Dr Agnès Callamard, the new Secretary General of Amnesty International, and former UN Special Rapporteur on Extrajudicial, Summary or Arbitrary Killings, talks about her report and investigation into the killing of Saudi journalist, Jamal Khashoggi. That report, published in June 2019, concluded that the killing of Mr Khashoggi 'was the result of elaborate planning involving extensive coordination and significant human and financial resources. It was overseen, planned and endorsed by high-level officials.' The killing of Mr Khashoggi needs to be understood in the current environment of press freedom. The 2021 World Press Freedom Index published by Reporters Without Borders found that only 12 of the 180 countries measured have a favourable environment for journalism and the Index has shown a consistent decline in press freedom globally since the Index was founded in 2013. The discussant, Hungarian journalist and editor of 444.hu, Mr Peter Erdelyi, talks about challenges facing journalists in authoritarian states.
