Around 50 women journalists from the south of Iraq gathered in the northern city of Sulaimaniyah in June '08 for training in television reporting and online journalism. The main aim of the training was to create media teams that would be able to return to their areas and publish and broadcast compelling local stories that will add to and enrich the complex narrative of Iraq.
Parallel to the TV training, IWPR ran an online journalism course, which provided instruction in subjects such as writing for the web, blogging, using the web as a medium for networking, photography, and producing and presenting audio and visual material.
