In collaboration with the Gaylord College of Journalism and Mass Communications of Oklahoma University, USA, IAWRT Nepal organized two separate training workshops for journalists from 11-14 January 2008. The trainers came from the Oklahoma University. The workshops were entitled ‘Leadership Skills for Women Journalists’ and ‘ Visual Story Telling: Best Journalistic Practices’. The first workshop was participated by fifteen women journalists from leading Radio and Print Media while the second workshop was participated by 15 journalists (10 women and 5 men) from different TV stations in Nepal. Considering the success of the workshops and the positive feedback from participants IAWRT Nepal has decided to organize similar workshops in 2009 and has initiated consultation with the Oklahoma University in this regard.
