All Eyes on Drones: Case-Study + Discussion

​A live conversation with war journalists documenting Ukraine — and what drone survival training at Daily Humanity taught them about risk, fear, and keeping their teams alive.

​We'll discuss:

• ​How the nature of risk has shifted — and why experience in the field can become a liability

• ​What drone survival training actually feels like under physical stress and time pressure

• ​The gap between knowing what to do and being able to do it

• ​Team dynamics under threat

• ​Why drone safety training is no longer optional — for journalists, drivers, photographers, and anyone working near a conflict zone

• ​Andrew Kramer — Chief of Bureau of New York Times in Ukraine

• ​Oleksandra Novosel — Producer, Suspilne TV, Kharkiv.
