Modules 

The KAS – REMENA Water Journalism Academy program comprises a four-module training and co-creation workshop bringing together media professionals with key stakeholders of the water and environmental sectors on constructive water reporting, follow-up coaching, and regional competition, the Blue Peace Open Eye Award, that will award the production of innovative media pieces that make a meaningful contribution to improve water management across the region.

At the end of the learning and exposure program, participants will learn the following things

  • Innovative ways of disseminating information about water-topics.
  • New relationships and learned from horizontal exchanges with other environmental journalists.
  • An overview of information sources on water topics and insights into aspects of water management that should not be neglected in journalistic work.
  • A better understanding of how to engage with and consult water sector experts.
  • Tangible story concepts in target group-tailored formats, as a basis for participation in the regional Blue Peace Open Eye Award.

Target Audience

Applicants will be selected on a basis to ensure that the participants have experience with different journalistic formats (including different types of articles, audio and visual formats) and media outlets (including traditional media outlets, social media influencers, communication experts etc.).
