Collaborative Reporting Projects
- Journalists from the two countries will work together as teams on a collaborative cross-border media story to be published or broadcast in both countries by April 14, 2024.
- Stories may be printed or broadcast in local languages as well as English.
- Collaborative reporting projects must focus on climate change and sustainability. Stories can link to economy and trade, health, environment, natural resources, agriculture, youth, underserved populations and indigenous groups, and other areas.
- Projects must include discussions of cross-border climate solutions as well as shared challenges.
- Each cross-border team mapped out stories in virtual workshops before the Kathmandu gathering, where project plans will be completed.
