Malawi Institute for Journalism Media and Literacy Training Workshop 2011 – 2012

This brief report details the activities of the Malawi Institute for Journalism (MIJ) Gender Media Literacy training conducted at the Malawi Sun Hotel from the 23rd – 25th March 2011. Gender Links (GL) in partnership with MIJ hosted the three day training which can be deemed one of the best and successful workshops in the area of gender and the media by the institution.

The course was based on the training manual Watching the WatchDogs which was developed by Gender Links in 2006. The training manual was adapted and enhanced with local Malawi examples from the media as well as those used in the Gender and Media Progress Study 2010 (GMPS) research so as to make it relevant to the participants’ context.
