In the latest meeting with the students of ‘Hydajet Lezha’ high school, who are part of the Newsroom Club established by H.A.N.A, all groups came together to reflect on the progress they have made so far.
Held at H.A.N.A Center, this meeting served as a valuable opportunity to discuss their ongoing work and to plan the next steps in their research and investigative efforts. It was a moment for the young participants to present updates on their projects, share the challenges they have encountered, and receive practical guidance from an expert in the field.
One of the key highlights of the meeting was the emphasis on professional journalistic practices. The students are learning to navigate the complex media landscape by developing critical thinking skills and understanding the responsibilities that come with reporting the truth. They engaged in discussions about the ethical aspects of journalism, the importance of unbiased reporting, and the need to approach every story with accuracy and integrity.
During the session, students gained insight into essential journalistic techniques, including:
Through their dedication and active involvement, these young people are becoming a powerful voice in the fight against misinformation and in promoting accurate and responsible reporting. Their investigative efforts are equipping them with the necessary skills to critically analyze information, challenge misleading narratives, and contribute to a well-informed society.
By fostering an environment where students can develop their journalistic abilities, the Editorial Club continues to be a platform for youth empowerment and civic engagement. The passion and commitment demonstrated by these students are a testament to the importance of media literacy in today’s world.
