PROJECT IMPLEMENTED BY THE DAR ES SALAAM CLUSTER OFFICE NATIONAL PROJECT COMOROS: CAPACITY BUILDING OF COMORIAN PRESS IN MODERN NEWS GATHERING AND PRODUCTION METHODS BUDGET CODE: 354 COI 5091 USS 20 000 TYPE OF PROJECT This project was originally intended to benefit a total of 23 Journalists from five newspaper houses in the Comoros. The journalists were trained in ethical reporting, modern news gathering approaches, and the practice of modern production equipment. Through the project basic equipment including 7 desktop computers with licenced desktop publishing applications, five digital cameras to support hands on training experience were be purchased. This project will improve the participation of the Comorian population in the economic and political dialogue through the print media. It is expected that improving the professional skills and capabilities of the media workers will encourage national reconciliation, better information-sharing and make the best use of the media in fostering economic prosperity in a country that is in the post conflict situation. IMPLEMENTATION The project’s implementation strategy will involve the execution of the below mentioned activities: � Identification and recruitment of a facilitator, preferably an international facilitator who will bring in new ideas � Acquisition and installation of the required equipment � 7-day training in the use of modern equipment for improvement in text processing, investigation techniques, analysis methods and objective reporting. Monitoring and reporting. RESULTS � The office of the UN resident Coordinator in the Comoros integrated the project activities in the United Nations Communications Group (UNCG) Comoros work plan for 2011, therefore supporting UNESCO’s contribution to One UN interventions in the Comoros. The project is perceived to contribute to the achievement o the outcomes of the the États Généraux de la Presse, that were held in July 2009. � 30 Journalists from the print media in the Comoros attended training from 01 to 03 June 2011. While there Gender balance in the participants, the majority fof the facilitators were men. This represents the structure of the Media in the Comoros where the Most senior positions are held by men. � Seven personal computers and five digital cameras were purchased for use during the training and were later distributed to Alwatwan, La Gazete, Archipelago, La tribune and La Citoyen. CONCLUSION THE PROJECT SHOULD PROCEED TO WIND UP OFFICIALLY. THE PROJECT HAS CONTRIBUTED TO THE CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT OF JOURNALISTS IN THE COMOROS TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION THAT THE PROFESSIONAL CAPACITY OF JOURNALISTS IN THE COMOROS IS KEY IN MAINTAINING THE CURRENT FRAGILE PEACE IN THIS SMALL ISLAND DEVELOPMENT STATE WHERE MOST OF THE PRINT MEDIA HOUSES PUBLISH IRREGULARLY DUE TO LACK OF FACILITIES, AND WHERE ALWATWAN, THE BIGGEST PRINT MEDIA, PUBLISHES ONLY 4,000 COPIES DAILY. 38
PROJECT IMPLEMENTED BY THE DAR ES SALAAM CLUSTER OFFICE NATIONAL PROJECT MADAGASCAR: SUPPORT FOR HUMAN-RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT IN THE JOURNALISM DEPARTMENT AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ANTANANARIVO BUDGET CODE: 354 MAG 5091 US$ 30 000 TYPE OF PROJECT The Malagasy media suffers from a lack of specialist professionals coupled with insufficient national coverage. Currently, skills are acquired either on the job, or through more or less informal ad hoc courses, delivered by development partners. Insufficient knowledge of the basic principles of the profession among media professionals is therefore a major problem. Additionally, the proposed reforms in the higher-education system provides for the implementation, in the near future, of the LMD (Licence, Masters, Doctorate) system. Thus, new knowledge and skills will have to be acquired in the development of training curricula, course organisation as well as training equipment and materials. This project which is implemented by the School of Communication at Antananarivo University seeks to address the following issues: First is the lack of course-design specialists for the development of learning / teaching programmes, second is insufficient training among trainers charged with raising the level of training and also the lack of equipment required for practical work. The project is being implemented by the Journalism Department of Antananarivo University which was established in 1995, with the support of media professionals. The School is one of the potential centres of reference in journalism training in Africa. IMPLEMENTATION The project implementation involves the following activities: � Drafting of the trainee selection criteria � Selection and recruitment of candidates and trainers � Purchase and installation of equipment � Elaboration of the training curriculum � Delivering of the Training of Trainers RESULTS A stakeholders meeting was conducted on 7 th December 2010 and criteria for the selection of trainees for the programme was adopted. Equipment selections have been conducted and orders have been placed, awaiting delivery. Selection of consultants to be is in progress, in the view of the recently adjusted programme adopted during the December 2010 meeting. The elaboration of the training curriculum will commence after the completion of the selection of consultants. The Project has experienced delays due to the strikes at the University. CONCLUSION THE HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT AT ANTANANARIVO UNIVERSITY IS BEING DELIVERED AT AN APPROPRIATE AND TIMELY MOMENT DUE TO THE CURRENT POLITICAL STALEMATE IN MADAGASCAR, COUPLED WITH THE REPORTED LACK OF PROFESSIONAL ETHICS, AND THE CONCENTRATION OF THE MEDIA. THE ROLE OF ETHICAL MEDIA IN THE MANAGEMENT OF CONFLICT IN MADAGASCAR CAN NEVER BE UNDER ESTIMATED. 39
