Masduki

I am a member of the Worlds of Journalism Study, managing the project for the Indonesian chapter (since 2014). Besides this, I organized several academic research and advocacies regarding media diversity and media ownership in post-authoritarian Indonesia, the safety of women journalists, and its impact on media and journalistic freedom in Indonesia during the last decade. Before entering the academic field, I was a radio journalist and currently working for the Alliance of Independent Journalists (a prominent journalist association in Indonesia) as a media sustainability consultant.

Definition of journalists' safety

The journalist's healthy environment in general: physical, economic, and personal political expression. Also, the journalists' safety from all kinds of harassment in their working place and field activities (physical, psychological, digital, etc.)

Future plans for research on journalists' safety

Safety of women journalists; the sustainability of quality journalism in the Indonesian digital age; Digital media ownership in Indonesia and Southeast Asia region and its political affiliations as well as its implication to the works of journalist's safety.
