The Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg Center

Journalists and filmmakers worldwide cover the most vulnerable people, while themselves contending with the impact of stress and trauma. The Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma has just released a new toolkit to help documentary filmmakers, journalists, and editors report on violence while taking care of themselves and colleagues. Judith Matloff, Dart’s senior advisor for safety, will introduce this new resource. She will field questions about planning for difficult stories, ethics, leadership, traumatic imagery, interview techniques, and reporting on vulnerable communities, children, and survivors of gender/identity attacks.

Double Exposure offers a variety of festival passes that provide attendees with priority access to a range of events. We also offer a limited number of standalone tickets to individual events, providing a more flexible way to participate.
