A three-day training program has commenced to enhance journalists’ knowledge of climate change impacts, adaptation strategies, and climate finance, as well as to improve their skills in producing data-driven news reports. Palli Karma-Sahayak Foundation (PKSF) organized the training initiative for members of the Economic Reporters Forum (ERF), a platform for economic journalists in Bangladesh.
Md. Mashiur Rahman, Deputy Managing Director of PKSF, attended the inaugural ceremony of the training titled ‘Climate Change and Climate Finance’ at PKSF Bhaban-2 as the chief guest. Deepen Kumar Saha, Deputy General Manager of PKSF, delivered the welcome address, while Suhas Shankar Chowdhury, Assistant General Manager, moderated the event.
A total of 25 ERF members are participating in the training, which covers global and national climate change contexts, climate financing, adaptation efforts, safe water management, and climate-resilient livelihoods. The sessions also emphasize data reliability, fact-checking, and accountability in climate journalism.
As part of the program, the participating journalists will visit Satkhira on November 11 and 12 to conduct field visits and inspect PKSF’s climate-resilient housing, livelihood, and safe water initiatives on the ground.
