A new textbook “Reportages in the name of changes: manual for journalists in crisis areas” was presented in Dushanbe by the British Institute for War and Peace Reporting (IWPR).

This is a practical manual for journalists who try to make their input and make positive changes in crisis situations.

Journalists are especially prone to various risks. However, more and more countries are choosing democratic ways of development, and the role of media professionals is gaining special importance.

”This manual is based upon a rich training and practical experience of journalists working for IWPR all over the world. The book includes theoretical materials and practical exercises, which will help Tajik journalists to develop their professional skills”, said Saodat Asanova, director of IWPR office in Tajikistan.

The book is published with support from the British Ministry of International Development and other donors. The original English version of the book has been translated so far into Russian and Persian languages.

IWPR actively works with Tajik media in the sphere of training. In online publications, IWPR contributors cover geopolitical, economic and cultural developments in Europe, Asia, Middle East and Africa.
