The Citizen Journalists Initiative is an activity within the project LADDER. It aims at creating a network of non-professional journalists who write about global issues from a local, national, European or global perspective, creating a platform for communication on Development Education and Awareness Raising (DEAR).

Are you interested?

If you are a journalism lover and you practice it – or would be interested to practice - in a non professional way (maybe you write on a local paper, or you run a blog, or you are part of a university radio, or… you tell us!)
If you are interested on global issues (including migration, human rights, development, poverty eradication, citizens' participation, youth engagement, solidarity, cohesion and mutual understanding, women's rights, multi-culturalism etc.) from a local/national/European/global perspective
If you are tightly connected to the network of ALDA, being participant of one of our past projects
If you are a citizen of any age (youngsters most welcome!) from the EU and its Neighbourhood

… then apply to this initiative!
