Glad to have you back!

Ronke Phillips is a correspondent for ITV’s ‘London Tonight’ and has worked for more than 20 years in print, radio and television journalism, including various roles at the BBC and GMTV. She recently won a Ochberg Fellowship for 2009 and will participate in a programme to improve her coverage of violent and traumatic events.

The Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma, part of Columbia’s Graduate School of Journalism, but with offices around the world, awards fellowships to mid-career journalists looking to improve their understanding of emotional trauma and improve coverage of violence, conflict and tragedy. A week-long fellowship program is designed to provide journalists with expertise in the ‘many dimensions’ of trauma and to meet like-minded colleagues from around the world.
