re_covering, our Media Chaplaincy podcast where New Zealand’s top journalists talk about the stories that most impacted them, has returned for Season Four.

"The Media Chaplaincy New Zealand team is devasted to learn of the potential job losses affecting up to 68 staff at TVNZ. This includes the invaluable Sunday and Fair Go teams, whose unwavering service to the public over the years has left an indelible mark on all of us.

Thank you for welcoming us into your space and allowing us to serve you. Your support has been instrumental in our journey.

Who is chaplaincy for? What can I expect during a chaplaincy conversation? Is media chaplaincy religious? - all your questions answered.

Media Chaplaincy has experienced increasing demand over the past two years. Reporters and journalists are under enormous pressure and traumatising situations regularly confront many: the very worst of humanity. We now have eleven media chaplains on our books with more on the way!

We must recognise how all-consuming elections can be especially working in the media industry. Now is the time to start putting in measures to ensure we healthily make it through this election season.

Media Chaplaincy’s General Manager Elesha Gordon attended Te Matarau, a wānanga about improving the representation of Māori and marginalised groups in news media. Here is her reflection.

We are privileged to partner with the Te Rito Journalism Programme - a training programme focused on training and supporting upcoming journalists who better reflect a rich, diverse Aotearoa.

This week marks the two-year anniversary of Media Chaplaincy’s first official partnership with the Pacific Media Centre.

Hosted by Media Chaplain and broadcaster, Rev Frank Ritchie, re_covering is all about New Zealand journalists and the extraordinary stories that have stuck with them.
