French-speaking journalists interested in environmental issues are invited to apply.
Prior to the 16th Conference of the Parties (COP16) to the UNCCD, the Convention Secretariat is organizing a training session for French-speaking journalists who cover the African continent on desertification and the role of the media in promoting sustainable land management practices.
This training will occur from Sept. 2 to 6 in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, on the sideline of the 20th African Ministerial Conference on the Environment (AMCEN).
The deadline for applications is July 21.
