PERU: SEMINAR ON JOURNALISM IN EMERGENCY ZONES

The Huancayo (Andes) Seminar "Journalism in Emergency Zones" will
take place in Peru on 20-22 September 1994. This important
regional event will bring journalists together from Huancayo,
Ayacucho, Tingo Maria, Pasco and Huanaco. The seminar will
provide training for journalists in the region, which is one of
the most conflicted in Peru. It will be opened by local
authorities, representatives of the Institute of Press and
Society (IPYS, Instituto de Prensa Y Sociedad) and members of
other regional media organizations. Journalists from the region
and well-known Lima-based journalists will give presentations
that should cause a considerable amount of publicity. Each day
will feature a specific theme under the topics "Journalism in the
Central Sierra," "Covering Emergency Zones" and "Protection of
Journalists."
