NAPCAN’s new Media Guide was officially launched on Monday September 9 at Parliament House during an event hosted by the Australian Parliamentarians for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (APPCAN). We heard from Emma Macdonald OAM, Senator Dean Smith, Senator Catryna Bilyk, and Zahra Al Hilaly, with NAPCAN CEO Leesa Waters moderating. Developed in consultation with the NT Alliance, these guides provide essential guidance for journalists, editors, content creators, politicians, and educators on reporting about children and young people in a respectful and fair manner. Stay tuned for more information about the guide and how we can all advocate for change to our media landscape, change that can improve the lives of our young people.
