The first day of training of the AFMI Young Reporters competition
On March 31 the Ifrane Model Forest organized an enriching day of training that brought together 28 motivated students, accompanied by their supervisors, ready to produce their reports to take part in the 2nd AFMI Young Reporters competition. The students were trained about the Model Forest approach, the potential and challenges of the Ifrane Model Forest area, as well as journalistic and investigative reporting techniques, and shooting techniques, both in photography and video, thus learning how to communicate effectively through visual media.
