[Reader-list] [Announcements] [infosouth] Global journalism workshops organised by Media21 in Geneva

[Nalaka Gunawardene, TVE Asia Pacific]

Apologies for cross-posting!

Dear colleagues,

I write to share information about two global journalism workshops being 
organised by Media21 Global Journalism Network Geneva 
<http://media21geneva.org/>
<http://media21geneva.org/>http://media21geneva.org. It is a programme of 
the Swiss-based media network <http://www.infosud.org/>InfoSud designed to 
enhance broader public awareness of global issues through better coverage 
worldwide, but also more effective interaction between the media and 
important information resources such as donor governments, United Nations 
agencies, NGOs, the private sector, academics, and other specialists. I 
attended one of their workshops on climate change last June, and found it 
well planned and organised.

Scholarships are available for those coming from low and middle income 
countries to cover travel and accommodation. See links below.

Please spread this news and encourage interested journalists to apply!

Warm regards,


Nalaka Gunawardene
Director, TVE Asia Pacific, <http://www.tveap.org/>www.tveap.org
