The Project OPEN Media Hub: Networking, on-the-job training and support to media professionals across the EU Neighbourhood area (EuropeAid/136510/DH/SER/Multi) is part of the European Union Programme OPEN Neighbourhood: opportunities, participation, engagement and networking” and is implemented by a consortium led by Thomson Foundation. The Consortium includes Action Global, European Journalism Centre, Free Press Unlimited, France Médias Monde, Ipsos Mori and Particip. The OPEN Media Hub project follows up on two previous EU funded projects – the Media Neighborhood and the European Neighbourhood Journalism Network.
On November 19-21, 2018 the OPEN Media Hub is organising a production-led workshop for Tunisian journalists ‘Reporting on Migration’.
This three day training seminar for broadcast, print and online journalists will propose directly implementable reporting tools aimed at improving the skills of journalists and managers reporting on migration. The main objective is to reinforce knowledge and skills of journalists in Tunisia in order to balance their stories and impact on the public perception of migration. Candidates are requested to submit a pitch for the story they intend to finalise during the sessions. The stories will be broadcast/published on the outlets and made available on the Open Media Hub’s platform and website, for exchange between participants locally and internationally.
Trainers: Magda Abu-Fadil and cameraman-editor David Hands.
