Our program manager Meenal Thakur will be in Yerevan this week for the EVN Media Festival, where she’ll take part in two sessions.
On Saturday, 21 November at 16:00, Meenal will sit down with political analyst Mikayel Zolyan for In Conversation. Drawing on Transitions’ work with newsrooms, they’ll explore how journalists can depolarize media narratives, bring more nuance to stories about conflict and engage audiences across divides.
On Sunday, 22 November at 13:30, she will join the panel From Problem to Possibility: How Solutions Journalism Can Change the Story. She’ll share examples from newsrooms across Central and Eastern Europe and discuss what solutions journalism looks like in practice and what the evidence tells us about its impact.
Curious about Transitions’ journalism programs or have an idea for working together? Come say hello if you’re at the festival.
