Join the Debate

Join thousands of journalists worldwide on ICFJ's International Journalists' Network (IJNet). Take part in this week's discussion question, which asks: "Does family or religion ever lead you to self-censor?"

You will need to register and create a profile in order to participate in IJNet discussions. Since we launched a redesigned IJNet site a few months ago, hundreds of you have already created profiles. So far, you are using IJNet to connect with your journalist peers, answer discussions and polls, solicit professional training opportunities, post your own questions and even hunt for jobs.

Notes from the Field
            
“I'm having a blast,” said American journalist Christopher Quinn. “What a great opportunity to have interaction with fellow reporters from around the world. To be able to hear, almost instantaneously, from others about perceptions and shared problems in reporting about religion has 24 karat value.”
