The Ethical Image, Panel 1: Challenges in Visualising a Changing World

“The Ethical Image: Challenges in Visualising a Changing World” was a conference that brought together leading experts from Asia and beyond working in academia, the media, and the NGO community to discuss the ethical challenges faced by those who create, publish and use images in the course of their daily work, with the Rohingya crisis being the main case study. Held at the University of Hong Kong on 6 October 2018 the event was organized by the World Press Photo Foundation ‘Explore’ program, the Journalism and Media Studies Centre of the University of Hong Kong, and Rights Exposure. It is supported by the WYNG Media Award (WMA) the Google News Initiative. This video is of the first panel, which provided the context and overview of the Ethical Image: Challenges in Visualising a Changing World, and included: David Campbell, World Press Photo Foundation - Moderator Julia Chiung-wen Hsu, Country Contact, Chinese-Speaking Network, Dart Center for Journalism & Trauma Iain Martin, News Editor (Asia), Storyful Philippe Massonnet, APAC Regional Director, Agence France-Presse Tanvi Mishra, Photo Editor/Curator, The Caravan magazine/PIX The conference discussions were about how visual representation of critical and global issues is both necessary and ubiquitous. Visual representation both calls attention to problems and frames possible solutions. More people than ever before have the capacity to produce, share and receive images of important issues affecting our world today, be they human rights abuses, the degradation of the environment, or economic inequality. The proliferation of images not only raises urgent questions on the ethics of creating and disseminating photos of those impacted by these issues but also requires us to re-appraise whether past critiques and responses are still appropriate and effective in our 24/7 digital world.
