The educational mini-course "Rebuilding Together: How to Cover the Country's Recovery in Challenging Times," conducted by ISAR Ednannia for journalists from regional media and local publications, has concluded. A total of 195 journalists from various regions of Ukraine participated in the mini-course, with 67 representatives of regional media receiving certificates of completion.

The course consisted of the series of online training sessions on communicating with society about Ukraine's recovery and European integration, utilizing modern tools for gathering, systematizing, and analyzing information. Qualified media trainers instructed journalists on monitoring expenditures for Ukraine's reconstruction, finding information on procurement, and identifying corruption, as well as improving written texts using artificial intelligence and exploring topics on recovery and European integration in the genre of solution-oriented journalism.

"This is the important project for us in supporting media representatives because there are many questions about understanding recovery: are we only rebuilding infrastructure, or do we have broader initiatives - about human capital, about how to keep people in Ukraine so they stay in their homeland and help with the recovery. This topic permeates all spheres of our lives, and now we need to talk from the perspective of Ukraine's future EU membership. The role of journalists, especially regional ones, in this is extremely important because no one knows better than journalists how regions live, whether people are involved in the recovery, and how the community sees it. Therefore, we will continue to support such projects," said Executive Director of ISAR Ednannia, Volodymyr Sheyhus, during the certificate award ceremony.

The educational mini-course "Rebuilding Together: How to Cover Country's Recovery in Challenging Times" was held as part of the project “Empowering local and regional journalists role in EU accession and Recovery of Ukraine”, is implemented by ISAR Ednannia with the financial support of the European Union and the German Marshall Fund of the United States (GMF).
