Training


Cotabato media needs workshop 2.JPG The Philippine Human Rights Reporting Project designs and conducts training that respond to journalists’ needs to develop and strengthen their knowledge, skills and attitude on reporting and monitoring human rights.

 

Journalists themselves partake in the development of the training modules: their documented problems, challenges, insights and recommendations to improve their broadcast or print reports on human rights are the basis of the framework, design and conduct of the training.


Training aims to contribute in improving the journalists’ reporting on human rights with their respective outlets and in enhancing a pro-active network of journalists that builds understanding and expertise in human rights issues.


Journalists are trained in reporting crucial human rights issues including rural poverty, armed conflict, peace and development, rights of marginalized and disadvantaged groups, and international humanitarian law.

Strengthening journalism ethics and professionalism is an underlying theme of the training. Safety and security issues are also featured given the particular dangers facing Filipino journalists.


A core of journalists is further trained to be future trainers who would help replicate the training to other media organizations and communities.
