Nik Gowing has been a main presenter for the BBC’s international 24-hour news channel BBC World News since 1996. He presents The Hub with Nik Gowing, BBC World Debates, Dateline London, plus location coverage of major global stories.
For eighteen years he worked at ITN where he was bureau chief in Rome and Warsaw, and Diplomatic Editor for Channel Four News (1988-1996). He has been a member of the councils of Chatham House (1998–2004), the Royal United Services Institute (2005–present), the Overseas Development Institute (2007-present), the board of the Westminster Foundation for Democracy (1996-2005), and the advisory council at Wilton Park (1998-present). In 1994 he was a fellow at the Joan Shorenstein Barone Center in the J. F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University.
Nik has extensive reporting experience over three decades in diplomacy, defense and international security. He also has a much sought-after analytical expertise on the failures to manage information in the new transparent environments of conflicts, crises, emergencies and times of tension. His peer-reviewed study at Oxford University “Skyful of Lies and Black Swans” predicts and identifies the new vulnerability, fragility and brittleness of institutional power in the new all-pervasive public information space.
