SECOND WORKSHOP -BASICS OF WRITING PROJECT PROPOSALS WITH THE AIM OF CO-FINANCING OF MEDIA PROJECTS

 

 

 

 

The second two-day workshop for media professionals, titled "Basics of writing project proposals with the aim of co-financing of media projects," ANEM organized in Nis, 22-23 October 2015. The workshop was led by the trainer Jasmina Debeljak Maljkovic.

The purpose of the training was to improve the knowledge and skills of media professionals - media representatives - for writing project proposals for the competitions for co-financing of media projects, called by the competent Ministry, provincial and local authorities.

During the two days of workshop, the participants were familiarized with the structure and basic principles of development and writing of the projects, also with the basic principles of cost planning and budgeting, as well as with the basics of the logical framework. The workshop sessions were structured in a way so as to enable participants to learn on the basics, rules, and different methods of designing and writing projects; requirements, criteria and priorities of the Ministry's competition; how the project idea and the proposal should be designed to comply the relevance of the project with the objectives and priorities of the competition. Participants were given the material to use at the workshop and after the training - for writing their own projects. Participants were enabled to check and apply the information and new knowledge through practical work on drafting the projects. Before the start of practical work, the trainer has introduced a good example of a project in the application form of the Ministry, so as to facilitate the participants to understand how the project should look like and which are its essential elements. Draft projects were developed in groups, with the help and advice from the trainer, while the drafts were discussed by all participants, with comments and suggestions from trainer on how to improve them; after discussion, the participants improved their drafts in line with suggestions. The issues that the participants dealt with in their draft projects were: development of cultural and artistic creation, and education, including media literacy; endangering women's rights, juvenile violence and the right of Roma to information. This workshop proved again that the presentation and discussion on all project drafts as well as shared comments are multiple useful for participants as this way they could identify common mistakes and doubts and remember them with ease. What was particularly interesting is that some of participants compared the projects they have previously done with the acquired new knowledge and noticed what did they do wrong and what should they change once they apply again.

The workshop was attended by 13 representatives of the media from Nis (Gradjanin.rs, Professional Association of Journalists of Serbia / NTV, Narodne novine, RTV Belle Amie, Super radio), Vranje (Vranjske, RTV Vranje), Pirot (Plus radio 010), Krusevac ( RTV Krusevac), Bor (RTV Bor), Pancevo (Pancevo TV, Radio Pancevo) and Aleksinac (Radio Aleksinac).

Analysis of the completed evaluation questionnaires showed that participants were very satisfied with the organization of the workshop and methodology (symbiosis of theory and practice), practical examples, the high competence and quality of trainer and the working material. Participants adopted a project terminology and resolve dilemmas they had before the workshop, learned a lot and improved their knowledge, assessing that the new knowledge would help them in writing projects for media competitions.

 

ANEM's project "Training of media professionals in writing project proposals for co-financing of projects for the realization of public interest in the field of public information" is co-financed from the budget of the Republic of Serbia - the Ministry of Culture and Information.
