Free training on illicit finance reporting [Uganda]

Posted on Mar 17, 2023 في Specialized Topics

Ugandan journalists who are fluent in English and have at least two years of experience can apply for the Wealth of Nations - Illicit finance (NORAD) program.

Thomson Reuters Foundation, in partnership with the African Centre for Media Excellence, is hosting workshops that provide training on “Reporting Illicit Finance in Africa.” 

Selected journalists will participate in intensive training covering illicit finance, reporting on companies, accounts and budgets and investigative techniques. 

The first workshop will be held March 27 to 31. A follow-up workshop will be held April 10 to 14.

Both workshops will take place at the African Centre for Media Excellence in Kampala. 

Participants will propose one or more story ideas and receive modest funding to realize their stories. The organization also covers accommodation, local transfers and meals relating to the training.

The deadline is March 20.
