Environmental justice reporting can be emotionally heavy and hard to swallow, but “there are some really uplifting stories,” KSJ Fellow @ycabreraoc.bsky.social explains.

Environmental Journalist Paula Moura, a 2025-26 KSJ Fellow and a transplant from Brazil to the U.S., sees herself as a bridge of communication between the two countries. 🔗: https://ksj.mit.edu/news/2026/01/16/paula-moura/

Since fall 2025, JASTJ has been creating short-form videos to spotlight key themes from its monthly meetings. Recent clips cover misinformation, rare earth strategies, and AI policy trends, helping make science journalism more visible and accessible to wider audiences. #GuestEditor

JASTJ's 6-month "Science Journalist Juku" training course combines online lectures with hands-on field reporting. In 2025 trainees visited NARO in Tsukuba to cover cutting-edge agricultural research tackling farming challenges. #GuestEditor jastj.jp/aboutus/intr...

In October 2025, JASTJ members visited NAOJ (National Astronomical Observatory of Japan) Mitaka campus, giving journalists rare access to cutting‑edge astronomy, from Subaru’s PFS to ALMA’s black hole studies and 3D data visualization. #GuestEditor nao.ac.jp/research/

JASTJ’s monthly meetings tackle key issues at the intersection of science and society such as: restoring Japan’s research capacity, the science behind elite baseball players, and global trends in AI policy. These sessions help strengthen accuracy and context in science reporting. #GuestEditor
