The workshop, facilitated by SIMHA, will provide participants with comprehensive training materials, including case studies and practical guidance. Journalists will enhance their reporting skills, enabling them to address child rights concerns responsibly and ethically. The workshop also aims to foster collaboration among journalists from different media organizations, promoting a collective effort towards promoting child rights.

Minister Daud Aweys Jama’s presence at the inauguration further emphasizes the collaboration between the government and SIMHA in promoting child rights and supporting responsible journalism. The government recognizes the important role journalists play in advocating for child rights and creating a better future for Somali children.
