A Milestone for Sebastian Junger's Conflict Journalism Training Course

Recent session in Turin was RISC's 12th.

With the completion of a course held in late July in Turin, Italy, the organization RISC (Reporters Instructed in Saving Colleagues) has now trained 288 journalists and photographers on how to optimally handle the challenges of conflict journalism.

Vice contributor Daniel Tepper, who is based part of the year in Turin and took the RISC course in 2013, spent time at this latest session and has filed an instructive look at what’s involved. For the piece, he gathered the thoughts of photographers Federico Rios (Colombia), Andrew Esiebo (Nigeria) and Gabriele Micalizzi (Italy), as well as those of RISC head instructor Sawyer Alberi, who calls rural Vermont home.
