In early 2022, JLI launched our first three regional learning hubs, in the Middle East, Syria, and East Africa. Each regional hub has embarked on an individual journey of mapping, networking, engagement, and learning with local actors from the region.
This series will explore those journeys, and will showcase the challenges, opportunities, successes, and learning that happens when we shift the power.

An investigative journalism training will be held in partnership with the “Arab Reports for Investigative Journalism Across the Arab World” (ARIJ) network to promote investigative journalism as an anti-corruption advocacy tool.

The training targets 30 journalists with capacity development on legal frameworks to combat corruption and provide the trainees with the appropriate tools to conduct investigations on three core topics related to the aid and reform efforts in the humanitarian, reconstruction and economic reform sectors.

The training will be divided into two (02) phases:
- In the first workshop, participants will be trained by LTA on anti-corruption
measures and the tools used to enforce those measures while promoting transparency and accountability. This workshop be held from the 23rd till the 25th of September.
- The second workshop will commence on the 3rd of October and will last till the 7th of October. LTA will be partnering with ARIJ to conduct trainings on investigative journalism and the process of producing an investigative report.

Following the completion of both phases, groups of participants will be assigned to produce investigative reports over the course of six (06) months. ARIJ trainers will be supervising and monitoring the groups. Investigative reports generated can potentially be published on media channels and on LTA's website.

تأتي هذه الجلسة ضمن سلسلة الندوات التي أطلقها مركز العلوم الاجتماعية للأبحاث التطبيقية تحت عنوان "سياسة العدالة الاجتماعية في لبنان: بين المواطنة والهويات والأزمات المتفاقمة" بهدف تحليل نظام الحماية الاجتماعية الحالي وقيوده. تسعى الجلسة إلى إثراء النقاشات حول السياسات العامّة، وتحويل سرديات وبرامج العدالة الاجتماعية والحماية، من النهج القائم على المساعدات ذات الطابع الخيري إلى النهج المتمحور حول المواطنين/ات.

In this 4-hour online session you can learn about preparing and facilitating a dialogue between two people, helping them to really listen to and understand each other and identifying actions they can take. You will learn how to prepare yourself so you can be equally supporting both sides, and to create a safe space for them to have a dialogue that is not about blame and defensiveness, but about really understanding the needs of both. You will have the opportunity to practice your new learned skills and to reflect on challenges you might have faced when you tried to facilitate or mediate before.

In this 2-hour online-session we will discuss the signs of conflict escalation and what makes it difficult to act. We will also share tips on how to de-escalate in different situations. And we will look at how to take care of ourselves and others during (or after) such incidents. This can also mean letting go of self-judgements about how we ‘should have reacted’.
