Guardian Editor Liz Ford on 21st-Century Reporting of Africa

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 17:15:01 GMT

Liza Ford, Guardian Katine Editor, speaks with Glasshouse Partnership about how technology is changing the way journalists report on Africa. The Katine website is a 3-year project launched by the Guardian to explore new ways of covering how aid impacts communities in developing countries. Funded by Guardian readers, the Katine project is a more 'hands-on' approach to understanding aid. Guardian journalists report from the Ugandan village of Katine, alongside the NGOs and local people about whom they file stories. Does 'embedding' journalists within these communities change the nature of the coverage? Is technology allowing for more interactive dialogues between Guardian readers and the recipients of their aid? Does this threaten or enhance the role of the media as objective intermediary?
