From accidental journalist to storyteller and mentor
Published 2 years, 5 months ago
Description
Scott Waide never set out to be a journalist.
In fact when he was leaving school he wanted to join the army and train as a pilot.
But his mother said "no way" and some school counsellors set him on the path of becoming the storyteller he is today.
Now he is known throughout Papua New Guinea for holding power to account, promoting media literacy and community-led journalism, and mentoring fellow journalists.
