Short description | During January-March 2007 British Council Turkey held a series of Guideline Development Meetings to assist in the development of framework guidelines for responsible and principled representation of less advantaged groups in the Turkish media. The meetings were held in partnership with the BBC World Service Trust and the Turkish Journalists Association. These meetings gathered diverse groups of people, from editors and journalists to academics and representatives of related non-governmental organizations as well as British Council staff and members of the Turkish Journalists Association. Each meeting hosted experts from BBC who have provided information on representation of children, women, sexual and cultural differences in the British media. |
