Furthermore, as added value, it’s important to highlight the final aim of the workshop: to create a Network of young journalists, filmmakers and editors from different countries of the world.

In the framework of different initiatives founded by the Italian Cooperation, a project with the same formula was carried out last year in Barbados and now a section two of the same is ongoing there.

The objective is to create a youth professionals platform linked with the Italian Television in order to have different local reporters in different countries of the world providing news and documentaries as needed.
