Événement
KAS Media Africa Local Journalism Award Call for Submissions 2024
KAS Media Africa invites you to make your submissions in English or French for consideration.
Local journalism is what makes the media and its audiences tick. It is the stories around us and about us, that speak to the situation in a country. Moreover, local news, if presented professionally, can be elevated to national level and sometimes, even make international headlines. Many local journalists struggle daily with breaking international news down to a local level. How does a coup d’état in Mali affect its neighbouring countries? What does climate change mean for the subsistence farmer in Zimbabwe?

Atelier
completManaging Conflict in Today's Newsroom
KAS Media Africa and the Aga Khan University partner for professional development course
Conflict is imminent in today’s newsrooms. A Newsroom manager’s role is much broader than simply delivering a good product. They have to manage economic expectations, gender issues, a tight budget and political influence. That’s a big task.
