Training
These training modules have been put together to offer ongoing help to journalists in transition states, post-conflict countries, and areas where freedom of expression is under threat.
The only condition for using these modules is that you let us know if you spot any typos. Many have been written on planes, in departure lounges and in hotels and they may contain spelling errors.
Also, please credit Media Helping Media (or the author if it is a module written by a guest) with a mention and a link if you refer to them online. If you have a training module you would like to make available, please use the contact us form and let us know.
