World News Day: the importance of journalism in reporting on climate issues

In its fourth year, World News Day, celebrated on the 28th of September, aims to serve as a means of driving public conversation about the climate emergency and its impact, and draw attention to the importance of global fact-based journalism in reporting on this critical issue.

World News Day’s organizers, the World Editors Forum (WEF) and The Canadian Journalism Foundation (CJF), aim to unite more than 300 news organizations to drive home the message that credible journalism matters if people are to make informed decisions about our planet’s future.

Celebrations include the “World News Day: The Climate Crisis” virtual event, highlighting the vital role journalism plays in providing the public with facts about the climate emergency. The event will be hosted by actor Victor Garber and Farah Nasser, anchor on Global News.

This 90-minute event will showcase journalism from around the world, highlighting regional climate change issues, activism and solutions. Registration is free, open to a global audience and available in all time zones on Sept. 28.
