ABOUT THIS COURSE

In this course, you will get an introduction to constructive journalism and learn how to use it within your career. Constructive journalism covers positive and solution-focused news formats, narratives, angles, and styles of debate, within classical reporting.
As a journalist, it helps you to report in a way that empowers your readers, listeners or viewers. It is about reporting information that can be used constructively, while remaining accurate, critical where necessary, accountable and upholding the standards of professional journalism.
During the workshop, we will show you how constructive journalism engages your audience. More importantly, we help you apply the techniques within your own journalism career or business. We introduce you to editors looking for constructive storytelling and you’ll hear from experienced freelance journalists who share their top tips for earning an income from constructive journalism.
If you want to use your journalism to really make a positive difference to your audiences and the world, then this workshop is for you.
