Description

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The U.S. Consulate General Erbil of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a program to build capacity among journalists or journalism students with fewer than 5 years of professional experience in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region and Kirkuk governorate. Please follow all instructions below. Priority Region: Iraqi Kurdistan Region, with particular emphasis on journalists operating in Sheikhan, Halabja governorate, and Kirkuk governate. Program Objectives: The vast majority of journalists in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region do not benefit from formal academic training such as journalism school. Editorial and reporting standards need improvement, with neither fact checking nor multiple sourcing being used consistently. This program will target less experienced journalists and journalism students to teach them essential tradecraft, ethics and skills. Participants and Audiences: The chosen audience should focus on those described under “Priority Region.” The minimum number of participants shall be 20.
