An extra special episode in our Bylines Reports series, bringing you a passionate and insightful debate recorded live at the Byline Festival 2025, in front of an excited audience of 200 people.
Join host Ben Dickenson (Bylines Network’s managing director), and an expert panel including:
• Outspoken former UK diplomat Alexandra Hall Hall.
• High-profile campaigner Stephen Kinsella, founder of Hacked Off and the Press Justice Project.
• Bylines Network co-founder, and co-editor in chief of Yorkshire Bylines, Louise Houghton.
They reveal what citizen journalism really is, the power it can have to tell stories that make the world a better place, and why we need it now more than ever. There will be passion, tales from both sides of the Atlantic, and questions from the audience.
All seeking to understand - can citizen journalism change the world?
