Xenophobia, Diversity and Migration: Workshops in Affected Communities

September 2009 workshops in Gauteng townships affected by xenophobic violence: Two-day workshops will be held in four townships in Gauteng that have experienced xenophobic violence (and have a strong community media presence) during September 2009. Experienced journalism practitioners will train community journalists and give them a better understanding of migration issues and the media’s role in conflict prevention. The second day includes a short field trip in the affected community and guidance on producing a story.
