    Imelda Abano on the Challenges of Reporting on Population and the Environment in the Philippines

    March 22, 2013 By Carolyn Lamere

    In this podcast, Imelda Abano, who writes for Eco-Business in the Philippines, discusses her experiences reporting on population and environmental issues.

    “It’s a very tough job for us to be reporting on these issues, but we have the responsibility to raise awareness…and we have to push for government action,” Abano says.

    In this podcast, Imelda Abano, who writes for Eco-Business in the Philippines, discusses her experiences reporting on population and environmental issues.

    “It’s a very tough job for us to be reporting on these issues, but we have the responsibility to raise awareness…and we have to push for government action,” Abano says.

    She describes the challenges facing Filipino journalists, especially when writing on controversial topics like population, and the opportunities for her country after the passage of a reproductive health bill in January (though this bill was recently delayed by the Supreme Court).

    Abano spoke at the Wilson Center on January 28.
