“Managing Risk, Safety, and Trauma as a Journalist” with Alison Baskerville and Tara Pixley
This session discusses key elements of risk assessment, safety and security planning, and the management of bio/psycho/social impacts in the work of journalists, understanding those experiences and the realities of the job through an intersectional lens. By recognizing how identity, environmental, organizational, and operational variables impact our health and safety for every assignment, we are better prepared to enter any space or experience. Tara Pixley (she/her) is a visual journalist and educator with 20 years of experience as a freelance photographer and photo editor for news organizations such as the New York Times, Newsweek, CNN, Wall Street Journal, ProPublica, and many others. She is currently an IWMF NextGen Fellow in journalist safety and risk assessment and a professor of journalism at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. Tara was a Knight Visiting Fellow at Harvard’s Nieman Foundation of Journalism, an inaugural awardee of the World Press Photo Solutions Visual Journalism Initiative, and holds a Ph.D. in Communication from the University of California San Diego. You can follow her @tlpix. Ali Baskerville (she/her) is a documentary photographer and a media safety trainer and advisor with a focus on freelancers. A former-soldier-turned-photographer, Alison is able to blend her military experience with her career as a conflict photographer to translate into realistic safety training for the media community. As a photographer she uses her experience to comment on, document and question the military experience that aims to make work reflecting on important contemporary issues such as social inequality, military occupation, gender identity and safety as well as the long-term consequences of emotional trauma through conflict.

In this event, Tara Pixley, the lead author of the report, and an award-winning visual journalist, professor, and co-founder and director of Authority Collective, is in conversation with David Campbell about the landscape of photography and what is it like to be a photographer in 2022 as revealed by The State of Photography survey.

Exploring the Risks of AI with Tara Pixley
As generative-AI models make creating, publishing, and circulating synthetic imagery easier and easier, visual journalists need to understand what this tech is and how it works.

Topics discussed include: deep fakes, generative-AI models and prompt practices, content provenance initiatives, current research on gen-AI, environmental impacts of gen-AI, and how to recognize synthetic images. Tara Pixley is a queer, Jamaican-American photojournalist whose work frames race, gender, climate futures, LGBTQ+ and immigrant communities through a solutions lens.

Join us to be inspired by artists, founders, and innovators; learn from peers and industry leaders; and explore the world through visual works of passion and curiosity. Our theme for this year’s Summit, The Change We Want to See, reflects the unique power of photography, visual journalism, and creative practices to drive social impact. “Images are instrumental to how we understand our world. They connect people emotionally to issues, promote deeper understanding, build trust, and spark action,” says Elodie Mailliet Storm, CEO of CatchLight. “The Summit is a place where a global community of visual storytellers and leaders in media and technology can gather, share ideas, and push the field forward through partnership and innovation.” Returning this year as Summit MC is Zena Barakat, Emmy-nominated producer and executive design director at IDEO.

In this session, prominent photographer and adjunct professor at Howard University Cheriss May explores one of the most—if not the most—important aspects of making honest and compelling work: ethics.

Cheriss May is a lauded portrait photographer and adjunct professor at her alma mater, Howard University. Her passion radiates through her aptitude to connect to the soul of those she photographs.

Nichole Sobecki - Foundry Presentation
Nichole Sobecki gives a presentation at the 2019 Foundry Photojournalism about the complexities around photojournalism created by community "insiders" and "outsiders" and talks about her work with Everyday Africa, a photoblog and book of collective of photographers capturing daily life in Africa. The Foundry Photojournalism Workshop offers majority world students who could not otherwise afford it a chance to learn from some of the world's most well respected photojournalists and photography professionals. Nichole Sobecki is a photographer and filmmaker based in Nairobi, Kenya. She is represented internationally by the photo agency VII. Nichole graduated from Tufts University before beginning her career in Turkey, Lebanon, and Syria, focusing on regional issues related to identity, conflict, and human rights. From 2012-2015 Nichole led Agence France-Presse’s East Africa video bureau, and was a Rory Peck Awards News Finalist for her coverage of the Westgate mall attacks in Kenya. In 2018 she was awarded by Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights prize in new media for her images documenting Europe's response to the the African migration crisis.

She is also a contributor to Everyday Africa, a collection of images shot on mobile phones across the continent, and an attempt to showcase the moments missing from dramatic news images — everyday life that is neither idealized nor debased. Nichole aims to create photographs and films that demand consideration for the lives of those represented – their joys, challenges, and ultimately their humanity. She has completed assignments throughout Africa, the Middle East and Asia for National Geographic, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Newsweek, Time, Foreign Policy, The Financial Times Magazine, The Guardian, and Le Monde, and her work has been exhibited internationally.
