CDD Empowers Journalists with Peacebuilding, Conflict Reporting Skills
Francis Sardauna in Katsina
The Centre for Democracy and Development (CDD) has trained journalists in Katsina State on peacebuilding, ethical reporting and conflict analysis as part of efforts to foster social cohesion and strengthen community resilience across Nigeria’s North-west region.
The two-day capacity-building workshop, organised by CDD in partnership with the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) and Mercy Corps, with funding support from the European Union (EU), equipped media practitioners with the skills needed to report conflicts responsibly and contribute to sustainable peace.
The training, themed ‘From Conflict to Cohesion: The Journalists’ Role in Building Peace in Communities,’ was held under the Conflict Prevention, Crisis Response and Resilience Project being implemented by CDD, IOM and Mercy Corps.
