About the event
From the organiser, as published on Ticketmaster.
What is it like to be a Danish correspondent in some of the world's most conflict-ridden and talked-about areas? Philip Khokhar has worked as a journalist and correspondent for DR for nearly two decades.
It began with the terrorist attack on the Danish embassy in Pakistan in 2008 and the war in Afghanistan. In 2014 he became Asia correspondent based in China, from where he covered an enormous and complex country and travelled in Thailand, India, North Korea, South Korea and Japan, amongst others.
It was also in Asia that Philip covered the coronavirus pandemic – and as the only Danish journalist he succeeded in reporting from Wuhan during the pandemic. Later he became USA correspondent, where he covered the American presidential election in 2024 and Donald Trump's return to the White House.
At the debate event, Philip Khokhar tells of some of the major events he has been close to, and about life as a correspondent on the move. We cover the war in Afghanistan, China's development and authoritarian behaviour as well as the USA and Trump's return.
But it is also about the small, surprising and telling stories from a working life where you never quite know what the next day will bring. The event is set up for debate and the opportunity for questions from the audience. 1 February 2027, 19:00–21:00 Roskilde Library, the hall Roskilde Library Dr.
