On Dec. 3, @siricarpenter.bsky.social will join @kossibalao.bsky.social, @mmeagnes.bsky.social, Magali Reinert and Lesley Cowling for a panel at #WCSJ2025 focused on equipping reporters with the skills to report about science. www.wcsj2025.org/programme/se...
A poster for the World Conference of Science Journalists in Tshwane, South Africa that features the images of five science journalists who will offer a panel discussion called: Critique of Science, Hoe to teach that skill. It includes the text: Journalism training often does not acknowledge the skills needed for sound reporting on the climate, health, technology and. other sciences, and why it is important to society. Science journalists from four continents will share tolls, experiences and resources on how they train other reporters to tackle science better.

Thank you for tuning in. We hope you can join us in person at WCSJ next time, but are so glad you are taking advantage of the opportunity to join #WCSJ2025 virtually, and seeing what the buzz is all about. It’s been amazing.

Remotely tuned in to the World Conference of Science Journalists today. It's not the same as being there, of course, but it's a lot better than entirely missing out. #WCSJ2025 #scicomm
