[FoME] Mentoringprogramm für Wissenschaftsjournalisten in Entwicklungsländern

[Lublinski at aol.com]

Liebe Fome-Kollege,
 
ich möchte Sie darauf aufmerksam machen, dass der Weltverband der  
Wissenschaftsjournalisten ein Mentoringprogramm für Journalisten in Afrika und  im Nahen 
Osten gestartet hat. Ich kopiere eine Kurzfassung des Projektes  untendran. 
Ausführlichere Informationen finden Sie unter _www.wfsj.org_ 
(http://www.wfsj.org) 
 
Ich selbst bin für das Monitoring und die Evaluation des Projektes  
zuständig. Weil das Projekt u.a. von der kanadischen  Entwicklungshilfeorganisation 
IDRC finanziert wird, werde ich mich dabei der  Methode des "Outcome Mappings" 
bedienen.
 
Außerdem baue ich im Rahmen des Projektes gemeinsam mit den Kollegen von 
_www.scidev.net_ (http://www.scidev.net)  einen "Online Course in  Science 
Journalism" auf.
 
Mit  freundlichen Grüßen in die Runde

Jan  Lublinski

Project: Peer-to-Peer Development and Support of Science  Journalism 
in the  Developing World 
This project has two main objectives: (1)  mentoring of science journalists, 
and (2) establishment of associations of  science journalists in Africa and 
the Middle East. 
1- Mentoring  program 
The mentoring program will associate aspiring  science journalists with 
experienced science journalists for a maximum period of  two years. There will be 
three groups of mentored journalists: Anglophone  Africa, Francophone Africa 
and the Middle East. Each group will include a  regional coordinator, 5 mentors 
and 20 mentored journalists. Following selection  of the participating 
journalists, the peer-to-peer coaching will begin through  e-mail and phone calls. 
Once a year, tied to a field visit or a scientific  conference, a workshop in 
each region will bring together mentors and  journalists.  
The program’s first step will be a training  session for all mentors and 
coordinators, in July 2006. Mentors will be  recruited in the regions and from 
different parts of the world. All mentors will  need English, while some will 
also need either Arabic or French. A formal  agreement will spell out clearly the 
responsibilities of mentors and what the  mentored science journalist can ask 
and expect.  
Throughout the duration of the mentoring scheme,  the World Federation of 
Science Journalists will systematically facilitate  opportunities for the 
participating journalists to attend scientific meetings,  participate in exchange 
programs and access resources, scholarships and other  training opportunities. 
2 – Mentoring of  associations 
The project will also twin young associations of  science journalists with 
long-established ones while providing means for  consultancies, exchanges and 
the organization of selected activities (training  workshops).
