Training of African Journalists in Sexual and Reproductive health in Kampala - Uganda

In May, 2015, Initiative for Rural Development - Uganda (IRD - U) in partnership with Uganda Radio Network (URN) and Radio Netherlands Training Center (RNTC) conducted a 2 weeks (11th - 22nd May, 2015) training African Journalists in sexual and reproductive rights in Kampala, Uganda. After the training, issues of sexual and reproductive health will be reported more objectively and they will receive a lot of media attention. Some of the issues trained in are HIV/AIDs reporting, reporting on infant mortality rates, covering issues of culture and women's health, covering issues of gender and access to health services among the most marginalised groups like rural African women and children, etc. Some of the journalists trained were from African countries like South Africa, Uganda, Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, Zambia, etc
