Media Training In Preparation For COP-26 Session

A one-day media workshop for Vanuatu media Officers, communication officers in Government sector and also Non-Government Organizations on October 21 in preparation for the COP-26 Session.

The Training aimed at enhancing and providing the right information to all media officers and communication officers about what COP-26 is all about.

This also included what countries will be participating in this session and what is happening in the COP-26 session.

 The media and communication officers came to know about the five key Thematic Areas that Vanuatu is involved in for that COP-26 session.

They are:

  1. Mitigation
  2. Finance
  3. Adaptation
  4. Loss and Damage 
  5. Transparency

The National Advisory Board (NAB) Secretariat, under the Ministry of Climate Change Adaptation, organised this training to prepare Vanuatu Mainstream Media Officers and Communication Officers for COP-26 Sessions that will take place virtually at the Grand Hotel from November 1 to 12, 2021.

The Training was organised for the media to understand and use the right information to educate the public on climate change.

The Training involved media officers and communication officers from government and private institutions, Vanuatu Broadcasting and Television Corporation, Daily Post and Buzz FM 96.3.

It was a successful training, where media officers also shared the challenges and difficulties on what they have always faced when trying to get information about climate change.

The NAB Secretariat has taken note of the issues raised.

The NAB Secretariat says it is pleased with the attendance and the outcome of the training and hopes to see such collaboration in the future.
