Media advocacy workshop

A lot is being done for the rural and marginalised sections of our society by the NGOs in India. But more often than not, these efforts remain largely isolated.

For an impact to be made, work and efforts have to be coalesced and a definite voice has to be given to it.

Keeping the above need in mind, Delhi based Sambodhi, a leading development research, training and consultancy organisation is conducting a three day workshop on Media Advocacy for Developmental Initiatives from December 3-5, 2008 at the Indian capital.

Training outcomes

Upon participation in the programme, the participants would be able to:

• Highlight ‘Media Advocacy’ as one of the main strategies of work
• Appreciate the role and use of media for sensitisation and coverage of field related issues for developmental work
• Identify and delineate appropriate media strategies in the field
• Describe and apply various message framing techniques

Who should attend?

The programme is for all practitioners engaged in development communication, knowledge dissemination and advocacy that include personnel from development organisations, projects and independent consultants.

Workshop fee

Fee for the programme is INR 4,000 per participant. Payments can be made through demand draft/cheque in favour of “Leprosy Mission Health Education and Training Centre “payable at New Delhi.
