EU and Antenna Foundation Nepal Host Journalism and Fact-Checking Workshop for Nepali Influencers

The European Union (EU) in Nepal, in collaboration with the Antenna Foundation Nepal, is organizing a three-day workshop focused on journalism and fact-checking. The event aims to bring together 20 social media influencers and content creators from across Nepal to improve their skills in producing credible and impactful environmental content.

Focus on Environmental Storytelling

This workshop, set to be held in Kathmandu, targets influencers and creators with an interest in environmental issues. Its primary goal is to enhance participants' understanding of journalism ethics and fact-checking techniques while equipping them to create high-quality content on environmental challenges and sustainable development.

Participants will benefit from hands-on training sessions led by seasoned journalists and fact-checking experts, who will share practical tools and insights into creating compelling narratives rooted in verified information.

Empowering Nepali Content Creators

This initiative reflects the EU’s long-standing commitment to promoting environmental awareness and natural resource management in Nepal. By empowering content creators, the workshop seeks to foster a culture of accountability and accuracy in environmental storytelling, thereby contributing to a broader movement for sustainability and ecological preservation.

Content creators interested in participating are encouraged to apply by December 25, 2024. Applications can be submitted online through the provided link. The workshop is expected to have far-reaching impacts, not only by enhancing the skills of individual participants but also by creating a ripple effect in how environmental issues are communicated across digital platforms in Nepal. By fostering fact-based reporting and storytelling, the EU and Antenna Foundation Nepal hope to inspire greater public awareness and action toward a sustainable future.

This initiative stands as a testament to the power of collaboration between global and local organizations in addressing critical environmental challenges while promoting media literacy and accountability among digital creators.
