Overview

The Documentary, Photojournalism and Global Justice (Online) programme offered at SOAS University of London content as well as teaching methods are rooted in a conception of journalism’s potential to speak truth to power, and a concern for the different ways in which that is under threat: from disinformation to emergent forms of censorship and repression.

The diverse range of modules also share a common orientation towards the Global South, championing decolonised and feminist approaches, and placing both the under-represented and the under-reported at the core of our curriculum.

Career opportunities:

The Global Journalism and specialist pathways prepare students for freelance careers and journalism roles within conventional news organisations as well as NGO and campaigning organisations. Students will also acquire cross-over skills applicable to a range of career pathways within broader fields including communications, human rights law and politics.
