This training course on election reporting for staff and managers of Azerbaijan's public broadcaster ITV will be carried out by BBC experts. It will build on the training so far, with the aim of encouraging ITV staff to adopt and apply best practices.
A mentor will work in the news and analytical departments for one week and set a number of objectives. The following month, he will return for another week, gauge progress, give feedback and set further objectives. This process will continue for 6 months.
It is hoped that ITV will show better results in balanced and objective election coverage, representing a variety of viewpoints and providing a neutral forum in which an open discussion of policies can be held.
