‘Breathing Out Burden’: Mental health support for journos covering historic student movement
The event, held on Saturday (September 14) at Counter Foto’s Mirpur campus, was designed to help frontline journalists cope with the significant mental health challenges they’ve faced since reporting on the movement, including trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Many of these journalists were unaware of the extent of their psychological distress, which had developed while covering violent protests and human rights violations during the movement.
