On July 5, the internship program within the 21st Media Mobility Hub, this time in wartime, came to an end.
Eighteen participants from across the country spent two weeks polishing their convergent journalism skills in wartime at the newsrooms of Detector Media, UA:PBC, Radio Liberty, Channel 5, Slidstvo.info, etc.
Radio NV host Dmytro Tuzov, editor at Slidstvo.Info Liubomyra Remazhevska, UA:PBC board member Tetiana Kyselchuk, and producer at Radio Culture Iryna Slavinska shared their experiences with the participants during the training sessions. The participants visited the Serhiy Prytula Charitable Foundation where spokesperson Mariia Pysarenko shared her advice on how to work successfully and the secrets of the People’s Bayraktar campaign’s success.
Roman Sevriukov, a student at Odesa Law Academy, shared his impressions from the internship under the project:
Perhaps, these were the best days of my young life. It’s an incredible story about incredible people.
I’m thankful that I could take part in such a wonderful adventure and get unique opportunities, beautiful acquaintances, and priceless experiences.
Thanks to the Hub, I’ve become a new person, and most importantly, I’ve started to believe that I can do and succeed in anything I want.
In the end, the participants were awarded certificates for successfully completing their journalism internship. The guests at the awarding ceremony were Krayina FM host and musician Ivan Marunych and IT-creator and co-founder of the OMTV (UA) channels Oleksandr Omelchuk.
The internship program was organized by Souspilnist Foundation in collaboration with Internews Ukraine and Detector Media.
