"This report presents preliminary results from an online survey of 282 journalists across 18 countries, with a qualitative phase planned to deepen these insights. Our focus was on symptoms related to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, and burnout, as well as organizational attitudes and protective factors like resilience and social support. Importantly, this study does not seek to pathologize journalists but aims to explore the mental health challenges of the profession through a holistic lens—considering structural and intersectional factors shaping well-being. Key findings include: Over 70% of respondents reported symptoms of moderate to severe anxiety; 43% showed signs of moderate to severe depression; around 40% presented symptoms associated with PTSD, with women journalists reporting higher scores; the highest PTSD rates were found in Central America and the Caribbean (nearly 60%); journalists covering multiple beats reported higher levels of PTSD, intrusion, avoidance, and hyper-arousal; no significant difference was found between those exposed to direct versus indirect traumatic incidents; 14% of the sample presented signs of a total burnout; only half of the journalists surveyed have social security; more than half have faced threats, mainly from government bodies and armed groups, with few of them coming from within the profession; despite this, 85% of the journalists reported high levels of resilience."
