If you are looking to further your experience in the notoriously competitive world of journalism, then the Projects Abroad Journalism project in Ghana may be just what you are looking for!
Projects Abroad have placements at publications for those interested in print, radio and television!
Volunteers on our print journalism placement will work for a newspaper, where you have the chance to put together an impressive portfolio. Working in a busy newsroom, you will work to deadlines, conduct interviews and write articles. You will get an insider's view of how publications are run.
Those working at a radio station as part of their placement could find themselves on air on their first or second day! Volunteers may help produce a show, read the news, participate in debates and talk-shows, or go out on the streets to ask people for their views on specific topics.
Volunteers working at a television station will gain experience reporting, scripting, producing and editing programmes. There could be the possibility of presenting on live television or appearing as part of a discussion panel.
The aim of our journalism placements is to give volunteers an insight into the workings of the media in a new cultural and political setting. The work experience you gain will enhance your CV and increase your prospects within the highly competitive journalism industry.
