Council’s workshop aimed at building the capacity of bloggers and other social
media enthusiasts in ethical code of conduct and conflict sensitive
Communication has started the third leg of its workshop in Port Harcourt.
The workshop kicked off on Wednesday, April 14, at Juanita
Hotels, old GRA, Port-Harcourt, Rivers state.
The workshop which targets all the geo-political
areas of Nigeria followed studies that social media has become an avenue for
transmitting hate speeches and radical messages which could lead to restiveness
in the society.

social media enthusiasts on the required knowledge on ethical principles;
conflict sensitive communication and reporting, gender sensitivity, credibility
and objectivity amongst others.
The seminar which is ongoing would be concluded
today, April 15. More updates and pictures to come.
