Malawi Polytechnic Media and Literacy Training 2011
 
(1)
 
 

The Faculty of Education and Media Studies of the Malawi Polytechnic (University of Malawi) in partnership with Gender Links (GL) and Malawi Human Rights Resource Centre (MHRRC) held a Gender and Media Literacy Training of Trainers from 28 to 30 January 2011 in Malawi. The training was a follow up to the findings of the Gender in Media Education (GIME) audit for Malawi which recommended identifying ways of incorporating gender into journalism and media curriculum; reviewing course content to identify ways to strengthen how gender is incorporated into content and teaching and building the capacity of lecturers to teach gender and the media. Thus this work was a GL initiative to assist the Department of Journalism and Media Studies to mainstream gender into course content.

The workshop saw the successful incorporation of gender into 14 course outlines for two media degree programmes offered at the Malawi Polytechnic.
