Event summary

Organised by the Media Diversity Institute (MDI), Richard Cookson, a journalist working for the United Kingdom TV Channel 4, and the Moroccan journalist Mounia Belafia, who contributes to Al Arabiya and France 24, will train young journalists in Morocco in inclusive journalism. The workshop forms part of the Young Reporters’ Diversity Network segment of Media Diversity Institutes (MDI’s) 2-year training programme, designed to promote inclusive journalism in Morocco.

The Media Diversity Institute (MDI) is a charitable, non-partisan organisation that works to mobilise the power of media to lessen inter-group conflict, advance human rights – especially minority rights – and support deeper public understanding of all types of social diversity. MDI focuses on regions where news media have played a destructive role in exacerbating ethnic and religious conflicts and violations of human and minority rights. MDI works with media organisations, journalists, journalism educators, organisations, and governments to prevent and reconcile conflict, promote tolerance of vulnerable groups, and stimulate balanced and non-partisan journalism.
