Presentation of the program
Believing in the importance of the role played by the media in promoting the process of democratic transition and achieving national reconciliation, Rasd Center for Humanitarian and Development Studies is pleased to invite media workers and those interested in issues of peace, national reconciliation and community peace to apply for the training course that it organizes in cooperation with the French Embassy in Khartoum under the title “Post-Conflict Journalism”training.
The five-day training course will address multiple and overlapping issues including journalistic ethics, separating facts from opinions, checks against prejudice, cultural violence and the power of the media. In dealing with the issues raised, the training will adopt an approach that combines theory and practice and unifies the expressions of written, audio and visual press. In doing so, the session will attempt to establish approaches between the manifestations of the conflict in Sudan and on the African and international arenas and their implications on the media practices in an attempt to differentiate between the trends and practices of traditional journalism and post-conflict journalism.
