Indonesia: Journalists From East Asia To Meet Next Month

3 Feb 2010

Some 40 senior journalists from the East Asian region will be meeting here next month to discuss the role and work of the news media in reporting issues on politics, religion and culture.

The event, from March 8 to 11, will also feature senior academia and political figures from the region.

According to the Asean Secretariat here, the participants will focus on subjects like the role of the news media in reporting on cultures, wars and conflicts, democracy and the daily challenges and opportunities facing journalists working on inter-cultural issues.

The "East Asia Regional Media Programme 2010: Journalism at the Intersection of Politics, Religion and Culture" is organised by the New Zealand government, with co-funding from the European Union as well as support from the East Asia Summit, the government of Indonesia and the Indonesian Press Council.

The event is the second in a series.

The first programme, held in November 2008 brought together 45 senior journalists and editors to discuss the coverage of sensitive regional issues.
