A study conducted over three years by the IBA’s Centre for Excellence in Journalism found that half of the journalists from Karachi were diagnosed with anxiety.

The study aimed to explore psychosocial issues that journalists and reporters in Karachi face, with a focus on the industry and work environment; to identify symptoms of emotional and psychological distress and trauma in these journalists and reporters; and to highlight the existing impact of the above-mentioned issues on their work and general well-being.

Watch our video about this study and the Facebook live session CEJ held on Wednesday to discuss the revelations.
