Report on: Newsroom Management/Part 2: Chief Editor: organization & management

This Regional workshop on Newsroom Management is implemented in 3 phases. The 2nd part takes place in TVRI, Jakarta from 26 to 28 March 2008.

In December 2007, AIBD in collaboration with the French Ministry of Foreign affairs and Canal France International (CFI) launched a three-part regional workshop on "TV Newsroom Management" aimed at enhancing the management of a more efficient newsroom. This objective is crucial in getting the public better informed.

This project covers three parts that will follow through the performance of six participating chief editors during a seven-month period.

The 1st workshop was held in Phnom Penh, Cambodia in December 2007, the 2nd one in Jakarta, Indonesia from 26-28 March 2008 with the support of TVRI and the French Embassy in the Indonesian capital.The same six chief-editors from Cambodia, Loas, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Indonesia attended these workshops.
Michel Reinette, Chief-Editor from France Television conducted the training workshop.

Various issues were dealt with during this workshop. The main one covered the prediction document, which is the `key success for managing a newsroom. The prediction document is central to forecasting the editorial line and the human & technical resources requirements.
Then, participants had collectively set up a Special News Edition focused on some subjects related to the "hot news" during the workshop. They conducted production exercises to explore the reporting process so as to improve the news content & structure, the angle, the duration, the design, the teamwork, the reporting preparation and the continuity script elaboration.

The third and last part of this three-part regional workshop will be held in France beginning of June 2008. It will be practical oriented so as to involve participants from the editorial conference to the TV news broadcasting.
