Reuters AlertNet released a compendium of online resources for journalists reporting on Myanmar.

Among them:

How well prepared are journalists from the U.S. Hispanic media and the media organizations of Latin America, which typically have far fewer resources, to provide such coverage? To provide answers to this question, ICFJ has developed an 8-day training program on “Emergency Preparedness: Reporting on Disasters”. The program will be from May 11 to May 18. Deadline: March 17.

AlertNet, Reuters’ humanitarian news network, has launched a training video for journalists covering conflicts and disasters. The video highlights AlertNet for Journalists, a toolkit including crisis briefings, aid agency news feeds, interactive training and more.
