The Edinburgh Book Festival will explore the theme of 'repair' this summer, focusing on the power of hope amidst global crises. Director Jenny Niven emphasizes the need for optimistic discussions in journalism, politics, and societal health. The festival will feature events with notable figures like Hanif Kureishi and Palestinian poet Najwan Darwish, aiming to broaden appeal with significant contributions from varying authors. The line-up includes Ally McCoist, Ruth Jones, and former First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, who will engage with their latest works, reflecting a diverse array of perspectives and narratives.
NYT has published a series of articles reflecting on the role of journalism in societal repair. We seek to present narratives that aid healing in fractured communities.
Repair is a positive, optimistic approach, [and] looking at journalism, looking at politics, there are a lot of things that are broken politically, mental health and wellbeing, societally.
