Document sans-titre

All over the world, journalists work on subjects such as "the environment", "the protection of nature", "sustainable development". In doing so, it is becoming more and more difficult to verify information or to put scientific, technical or economic data into the right context.
The needs of those working in the media regarding information are, to a great extent, not known, especially as they differ considerably from country to country.
Which type of education or which training could facilitate and improve journalists' work?

In order to get to know these needs (better), we, Louisette Gouverne and Michael Schweres, journalists and managing directors of the International Federation of Environment Journalists IFEJ, have elaborated this study.

The media survey, essentially a multiple choice questionnaire about your professional surroundings, constitutes the start and the first stage of a more far-reaching project:
In cooperation with various organizations, we wish to offer education and further training for journalists in different regions of the world which takes the real needs of our colleagues into account.

The questionnaire - it will be available online until the end of September - contains 22 questions on 5 screen pages. (some details are voluntary*)
You need approximately 20 minutes to answer all the questions. We ask you to do this carefully so that the evaluation of the data, which will be carried out by the Munich sociologist Dr Frithjof Zerger, reflects your situation and your needs as exactly as possible.

A preliminary analysis will be presented at the 8th International Environment Journalists' Congress from 13th to 19th November in Cairo, Egypt.

You are of course entitled to verify, modify, correct or delete your personal data, as provided by Article 34 of the French data protection Act (article 34 de la loi "informatique et libertés" adoptée le 6 janvier 1978 en France).
