We want to improve the quality of information, and therefore the democratic debate, in the media operating into the Amhara and Oromia regions. In addition to transmitting the fundamentals of journalistic ethics, our aim is to organize training sessions that will provide the journalist community at large with the tools to prevent and counter hate messages, identify fake news, etc. As a methodology we will focus on the training of trainers, in order to multiply the acquired know-how.
