SEJ News: #SEJ2025 LIVE — On-the-Ground Coverage From Reporters in Our Student Newsroom

A team of student journalists reported on key environmental issues at the annual Society of Environmental Journalists’ conference, which took place April 23-26, 2025 in Tempe, Arizona.

The #SEJ2025 LIVE initiative comprised 16 student journalist fellows working under the guidance of eight newsroom editors from The Arizona Republic. SEJournal editor Adam Glenn served as a facilitator during the run-up to the coverage.

The program was supported by the Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust, Arizona State University’s Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication, the Arizona Media Association’s Local News Foundation and the University of Arizona's School of Journalism.

The stories are available open-source for other outlets and organizations to share and republish, with credit and links (you can select from SEJournal's coverage or sign up here for AZCentral’s climate newsletter to track the reporting and pick any up for republication).
