Training resources

http://www.mediahelpingmedia.org/content/section/6/234/ This training section was set up by David Brewer of Media Ideas International Ltd in order to offer ongoing help to media development clients in transition states, post-conflict countries, and areas where freedom of expression is under threat.   David had undertaken a number of contracts for media development organisations but realised that, in some cases, there were no plans to support the media organisations involved after the projects ended.   He set about writing a number of training modules so that the media organisations that couldn't afford to pay for further help could still build their own capacity to survive.   Over time, others joined in and offered existing training modules, or to write new ones. These have been added to the mix.   More are being added all the time. If you have a training module you would like to make available, please use the contact us form and let us know.   Also, because many are written on planes, in departure lounges and in hotels, they may contain typos. The only condition for using these modules is that if you spot any typos and errors you let us know, and that you credit Media Helping Media (or the author if it is a module written by a guest) with a mention and a link.   Listed below are the categories for the training modules.
