Subject: The Eastern Africa IREN Annual Media Event:
Dear Compatriots,
Re: Is Eastern Africa Ready for China , India and Europe ?
Political events are unfolding in Africa in a pattern never countenanced before. At the same time huge investments from the developed, re-emerging and emerging economies are penetrating deeply into sinuses of the region. The speed at which the goodies and the political confusion that accompanies them has hit Eastern Africa citizens is alarming.
How prepared are we to engage our friends? It is for this reason that the Inter Region Economic Network (IREN) has invited 4 keynote speakers, to stimulate discussion on these issues next month. We are looking for senior journalists, editors, and communication leaders who have interest in the above topic and have confidence to fire tough questions to our panel to be revealed in due course.
We have redesigned the 9th IREN Eastern Africa Media Training set for March 9 - 12, 2011, to offer value to Eastern Africa journalists, media practitioners and communication experts on how to cover development issues in a changing global economic dispensation.
This training will have three main components: a high level brainstorming session that will bring together leaders from Eastern Africa, China, India and Europe; a scholars' discussion and critique session; and a delegates' workshop on the theme: Is Eastern Africa Ready for China, India and Europe?
The 9th IREN Eastern Africa Media Training will be held in Nairobi Kenya. Interested applicants should submit a letter of interest and brief bio by February 18, 2011. Participation is by invitation only.
Please email Edith edith@irenkenya.com and cc events@irenkenya.com if you would like to attend, or know someone who can attend. Limited scholarships covering travel and accommodation are available on competitive basis.
Thank you
James Shikwati
