I still don't understand exactly what is meant by community journaism, though it seems to be very relevant to our work in Tanzania. We are a multimedia edutainment project that produces (among other things) a bi-monthly magazine targeting semi-literate, out-of-school, rural youth. Key features of the magazine are its participatory production process, and its capacity to serve as a platform for rural youth voices. The magazine has been very popular, largely because it is locally produced, mirrors the rural context and uses simple, directly language.

I will definitely contact the author to request a copy of the paper.
