Journalists’ Workshop in Tirana

25 09 2007  Seven journalists from leading Albanian publications attended a workshop in Tirana on September 20, as part of BIRN’s ongoing reporting project.

Journalists’ Workshop in Tirana


The group comprised reporters whose aim is to become regular BIRN contributors. Participants in the workshop included journalists from the dailies Koha Jone, Korrieri, Shqip and the magazine Mapo.

Individual meetings were also held with reporters interested in writing for Balkan Insight, BIRN’s online publication.

Special attention was devoted to the issues of sources and interviews - finding the right people, checking their reliability, building a network, using anonymous sources and protecting them, dealing with individuals in positions of power and confronting interviewees with relevant information and arguments.


During the workshop, BIRN’s Albania Project Manager & Editor, Besar Likmeta, worked with journalists on the preparation of articles dealing with specific subjects, such as corruption in the health service and in the educational system. Several investigative articles were commissioned and outlined.

The workshop was organized with the help of the Washington-based National Endowment for Democracy, a private, not-for-profit foundation.
