citizen journalism announcement

[roshan sylvester]

Foundation for People Empowerment,(Guwahati) in association with
Mahiti (Bangalore) are organising a series of workshops on Citizen
Journalism in the Northeast between July 15-27, 2010.

Citizen Journalism is an extremely important tool that has enabled
the populous to play 'the gate keeper of democracy'. Citizen
Journalism with its robust, random and unconventional style of
reporting has gained significant attention in the eye of the
mainstream media. The dawn of new media has facilitated the growth and
spread of Citizen Journalism through the powerful use of the internet
and simple mass media gadgets.

This is an event for professionals actively working with marginalised
communities having experience in advocacy, campaigning, and having
regional or international networks. The workshop participants would be
advocates, technology specialists, designers and strategists who have
used OR PLAN TO USE technological tools and tactics in their
campaigns. They need not be experts but need to have an aptitude for
the use of technological tools and basic computer usage skills, along
with a track record of active involvement in rights advocacy
initiatives. Participants whose work centres on the gathering,
dissemination and design of information
would benefit immensely.

Objective of the workshop: Introduction and hands on experience of new
media tools to grass root activists.
