Blue Monday in the office: share your professional bloopers

Ever had egg on your face while reporting a story? Do you remember that one assignment when everything just went wrong, from one moment to the next? Or how you completely misunderstood what a researcher was explaining to you? Are you brave enough to share your worst professional bloopers during this open session, for the laugh of it? And to share the valuable lessons that you learnt in the process?

This session is open to all delegates. If you’d like to participate, please email programme@wcsj2025.org with the subject line: Blue Monday.
