| Participants Learn about Fund-raising Techniques |
Independent media is a
central component of promoting democratization. These institutions are
especially important in rural regions, where access to information is often
limited. In order to develop this capacity, Zinatullo Ismailov, Dzhaloluddin
Ahmad and Azorabek Azorabekov organized a training session in Tursunzade with
funding from the U.S. Embassy in Dushanbe.
The training consisted
of 3 days of intensive workshops aimed at honing entrepreneurship, marketing strategies,
and professional development for journalists. Staff from three companies took part in the program.

Participants had a
particular interest in Tajikistan’s transition to digital broadcasting and how
to grow local television stations and increase access to potential audiences.
The
focus of much of the training was on developing the capacity of small regional
and city-based radio and television broadcasting services. Special attention
was also placed on examining how public broadcast companies can help build
connections between individuals and communities and create a platform for civic-engagement.
