EJTA to co-host World Journalism Education Congress


The EJTA and the Flemish/Dutch Network of Journalism Institutes (Vlaams Nederlands Overleg van Journalistenopleidingen, VNOJ) will host the next World Journalism Education Congress in Brussels in 2013.


This third congress will follow two highly successful meetings in Singapore (2007) and Grahamstown, South Africa (2010).


Our bid to host the congress was presented to the World Journalism Education Council in Istanbul in July.


We hope that many members will be able to attend and take part in the congress, which will include and partly replace our annual meeting and conference.


Our 2012 conference, as already announced, will be held in Istanbul.

It is with great regret that EJTA has to announce the death of Meinrad Rahofer

16.02.2010

 

Kuratorium für Journalistenausbildung is saddened by the loss of its managing director, Dr. Meinrad Rahofer, Austria’s heart and soul of quality journalism training. From 2003 to 2006, Rahofer served as vice-president of the European Journalism Training Association (EJTA).

Rahofer, who was director of the Salzburg-based Austrian Media Academy / Kuratorium für Journalistenausbildung (KfJ), passed away on Feb. 12 after a short, but severe illness at the age of 54. He is survived by his nine-year-old daughter.

For more than 20 years, Rahofer was at the forefront of developing training and education models and programs for generations of young Austrian journalists. With an eye on new international trends and
developments, Rahofer always strived to incorporate non-Austrian viewpoints in countless workshops and roundtables.

He received several awards for his efforts to instill a drive for quality among Austrian journalists.

He will be missed by us all.
