Hi Lyra,

I noticed this discussion didn't get picked up by anyone at the time. But I'm interested to hear more about NewsRupt and the products you are developing for journalists.

Thanks,

Emma

Hello,
Unfortunately, in case of Armenia so many problems occur that telling about one or two would not give the whole situation. In any case, there is a problem of getting published investigative stories, but mostly it is the problem of skills to do investigations. There are few possibilities to get involved in some studies on the investigative journalism, but that is not enough to make a sense in the whole field. So that is why in Armenia we may publish a bit easier our investigations as that kind of work is not done as frequently as needed.
In any case, I would also like to get more info on the possibilities of products for journalists.
Best,
Aghavni

Hi Emma and Aghavni!

Thanks for your replies, and sorry I'm a bit late to reply-we've been moving offices!

Would love to discuss more with you Emma, I'll be in touch!

Totally agree Aghavni, I think there needs to be more widespread training to help train journalists in investigative skills. It's very difficult to start when you don't know where to begin, as I did. We're hoping tools like Qluso can change this though.

I was looking at Qluso the other day. Perhaps you could do a survey with our Community members?
