Workshop in Mavrovo

Датум

At the workshop held in Mavrovo from 11 to 13 April, around twenty journalists and media workers from several editorial offices debated about the action plan which is to be implemented by the Independent Trade Union of Journalists and Media Workers based on the findings contained in the “White Book”. The publication which was released in March touches on several key topics which journalists find problematic, such as censure, self-censure, the problems of the correspondents and the free-lancers, wrongful dismissals, fixed term contracts, etc.
