Basseterre, St. Kitts, November 20, 2015 (SKNIS): In an effort to effectively and efficiently report on children’s issues in the Caribbean region, media practitioners from the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS), as well as Barbados, Suriname and Trinidad and Tobago, have pledged their dedication to implementing guidelines that would assist them in protecting the rights of children. This was done on day two of the training workshop on Responsible coverage of Children’s Issues, being held in Antigua from November 18-20.
BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – THE gaps that exist between media practitioners and their audiences concerning education on the CARICOM Single Market and Economy (CSME), as well as the need for clarity on the subject matter, are two of the driving forces behind a two-day workshop being held at the St. Kitts Marriott.
