Beskrivelse:
Background
The Thomson Foundation was established by Lord Thomson of Fleet in 1962. Today it is internationally recognised as a leading independent provider of practical training without political, ideological or commercial strings.
The Work of the Foundation
The Thomson Foundation provides practical, intensive training both in the UK and abroad, along with a wide range of consultancies, to journalists, managers, technicians and production staff in television, radio and the press.
A small full-time staff at the UK headquarters is supported by a large number of specialist freelance consultants who deliver more than 60 workshops, seminars, courses and consultancies world-wide throughout the year. Training courses and consultancies can last between one to twelve weeks, and each is tailored to the individual country and organisation.
For the first 25 years, the Thomson Foundation mainly worked with the emerging nations of Africa, Asia, the Middle East, the South Pacific, the Caribbean and South America. Since 1990 the Foundation have become increasingly active in the the new democracies of Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union.
The participants
The courses are aimed at mid-career journalists and broadcasters from overseas only. Formal academic qualifications are not required, but the participants on the UK courses are expected to have at least three years full-time experience in print or broadcast journalism.
Only working journalists and broadcasters from developing countries and the new democracies are considered.
