The Global Risk Journalism Hub (GRJH) is a research network that brought together over 100 researchers, policymakers, and practitioners from around the world to understand the issues surrounding global journalism and the communication of global risks. This cross-university platform was active between 2021-2025. Directed by Ingrid Volker, Bruce Mutsvairo, Saba Bebawi, Ansgard Heinrich and Maria Konow Lund, the network ended after the publication of its book Ecologies of Global Risk Journalism: Conceptualizing Local Journalism in an Era of Deep Disruptions

Updates are currently underway to recognise all network members and regional leaders
