The Annual USAID BMAP Media Forum was held in October this year. This Forum provides an important opportunity to bring together representatives from USAID's BMAP partner media outlets across the region to share best practices and lessons learned, deepen their understanding of global and regional trends, and seed or strengthen partnerships to advance solutions to common challenges in content production and content monetization in the digital environment.
Our partners had opportunity to hear and discuss about the latest trends and changes in journalism, with special focus on covid-19 pandemic.
Dušan Mašić spoke about the beginning of pandemic, how pandemic affected the media and what kind of changes brought to the newsrooms.
Dušan has more than twenty years’ experience in news journalism; including at senior editorial level where he ran the pressurised news room of Serbia’s lead independent national broadcaster B92 from 1996-2000.
