In June, the Presentes news agency is launching a series of journalism training workshops. The first workshop, free of charge, will provide tools for covering issues related to sexual diversity. It will be held in Buenos Aires, at the Tomás Eloy Martínez Foundation, on Saturday, June 10. Space is limited, so prior registration is required.

How should we approach news stories about the LGBTI community? That's the main question we'll address in the workshop "Present: Tools for Gender-Sensitive Journalism." The workshop aims to analyze how issues of sexual diversity—which are often made invisible or stigmatized—can shape the journalistic agenda and become ways to combat discrimination.

Who is it for?

This course is designed for journalists, communicators, journalism and communication students, activists, and individuals working in civil society organizations in communication areas related to LGBTI issues.

Based on a situational analysis, we will collaborate with special guests and experts in these fields to develop best journalistic practices.

The workshop's key points

1) How do major media outlets cover LGBTI issues? Diagnosis and case analysis.
2) Theoretical framework. Glossary and definitions.
3) Towards good journalistic practices. Sources and key figures. How to report from a human rights perspective. Mistakes to avoid.
4) Stories, news, investigations: production, approaches, writing, and editing.
