The Union of Journalists hosted a mini workshop for Tajik media practitioners on the topic “Newest information technologies: News Evolution”.

The workshop was conducted on 10 October by Drew Sullivan, a US trainer. He told the Tajik journalists about the latest trends in the global media including the alterations in news formats and the ways of conveying information to different audiences.

Mr. Sullivan has recently returned from Khujand, Sughd province, where he conducted a similar seminar for local journalists and editors. However, the workshop was dedicated to another topic: “Journalistic investigation and accountability of the government through the media”.

Drew Sullivan is a freelance journalist working in Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina. Previously, Sullivan worked as an IREX advisor on printing media in Bosnia helping in strengthening media entities and making them more sustainable.
