Speakers

Nikoletta Stoyanova

Nikoletta Stoyanova, 21, from Ukraine, is the recipient of the lan Parry Photojournalism Grant 2023. Stoyanova was working for the Ukrainian state broadcaster Suspilne as a photojournalist in
Odesa when the Russian invasion began. She stayed to document everything and became a fixer. In almost a year of work, fixing became the best school of reporting,’ she said. ‘Working with
experienced journalists, photographers and videographers, you learn how to be like them. You learn to search for topics, contacts, people, places. You organise all the work, start writing texts
and then do the pictures.
