At the conclusion of this workshop, participants will have the confidence to write and revise an original piece of commentary or opinion; and put the piece up for publication.
This project seeks to encourage greater participation in the local media and in national debates about gender, by enabling participants of this workshop to write their own opinion pieces. The workshop will be open to women’s organisations, human rights NGOs, and university students and will focus on gender issues.
60 participants attended training for a period of three weeks. Since the conclusion of the workshop ten articles written by participants have been published in newspapers and online media on topics such as health, gender equality and education.
