Project holds training of trainers PDF Print E-mail

ImageThe Philippine Human Rights Reporting Project conducted a training of trainers on human rights reporting on May 23 and 24 in Cardona, Rizal.

 

Ten journalists from broadcast, print and online media outlets took part in the training which was aimed to replicate the Project’s modules on human rights reporting, particularly reporting poverty, extrajudicial killings, and crime and justice.

 

The trainees, coming from different cities and provinces nationwide, were provided inputs on selecting a good learning environment, planning a session, using visual aids, facilitating discussion groups, applying active learning techniques, and synthesizing a session or training.

 

Part of the trainees’ workshop was administering the Project’s training module on crime and justice reporting. Grouped into two, the trainees were asked to conduct a mock training including preparation of visual aids, facilitation of discussion and wrapping up of important points in the training.

 

ImageIn planning a training session, the trainees were encouraged to consider the following: the target group, training topic, aims and objectives, structure, training methods and techniques, material selection, timing and session plans.

 

“The trainer should not be like a police,” lead trainer Rowena Paraan of the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines told the trainees. A good trainer must be able to gain participants’ attention and interest, allow discussion, assist in recalling past knowledge and experiences, and more especially present new information.

 

The trainers’ training is part of the Project’s aim to root better human rights awareness and protection within and via the media to society at large. For 18 months, it has conducted about 30 training sessions on basic human rights and media, rural poverty, and EJK.
