"This practical guide for media practitioners is aimed at providing basic knowledge, guidelines and tips that are useful for effective and respectful coverage of Indigenous peoples issues in Asia. Greater efforts are needed to improve media reporting on indigenous concerns so that Indigenous peoples may be portrayed in a manner that truly and sensitively reflects their situation and cultural diversity. There are no firm rules that can be applied to all Indigenous peoples or situations. However, this guide provides some guidelines and principles to help a journalist find the best way to do research, conduct interviews, write and publish articles dealing with matters of particular concern to Indigenous people."
