Climate-Change Journalism in China: Opportunities for International Cooperation

Copenhagen; Beijing: International Media Support (IMS);Caixin Media (2011), 137 pp.
"How do Chinese journalists cover climate-Change stories – and what opportunities for international cooperation in the field of climate change reporting exist for funders, NGOs and governments? These are the two related questions that this report attempts to address. The report – produced jointly by chinadialogue, Caixin media and International Media Support (IMS) – is based on research carried out in June 2010. The author distributed questionnaires and conducted indepth, semi-structured interviews of participants at a climate-Change fellowship for 10 journalists and editors from around China, organised by Caixin media and IMS."
