Participants in the 22nd round of the War Journalism Training Program organized by Anadolu Agency graduated Friday.
Twenty-five journalists, including 14 foreign reporters who took part in the Turkish news agency’s war journalism training program, received certificates at the company’s headquarters in the nation’s capital of Ankara.
The 12-day program from Sept. 26 to Oct. 7, trained journalists to work in war, disaster and emergency situations.
The program was held in cooperation with state aid agency, the Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TIKA) and the Turkish Police Academy.
Anadolu Agency News Coordinator Yahya Bostan congratulated the journalists who completed the training.
Bostan said the agency will continue the war correspondent training in the spring of 2023 as he thanked everyone who contributed.
“We would like to convey to you the knowledge and experience that will enable you to survive while doing your job during disaster and war,” he said. “I believe the knowledge and experience you have gained is vital.”
Police Academy’s Vice President Fatih Inal said that journalists in many countries have made great demands to attend the training.
“We take care to meet these demands within our program,” said Inal.
Ugur Tanyeli, a senior TIKA official said that the organization’s project activities in friendly and brotherly countries are an investment in human resources.
Noting that one of TIKA’s most critical project investments is the media sector, Tanyeli said: “More than 1,000 journalists have attended the training we have organized with Anadolu Agency since 2017.”
