The kabataan news network (KNN) Dumaguete Bureau has been selected to participate in the training on adolescent sexuality, life skills and investigative reporting on April 18 to 22, 2005 at Astoria Plaza Hotel, Ortigas Center, Manila.

Of the 14participants from the different bureaus in the country, two are from Dumaguete, namely KNN Dumaguete reporters Dwight Lahera of Silliman University and Zapphire Zamudio of St. Paul University.

They were chosen based on their television production experience and willingness to learn about new ideas and concepts.

The training aims to relate the concept of life skills to the promotion of sexual and reproductive health among adolescents, to create awareness among the KNN reporters about teen sexuality issues, and develop their skills in in-depth reporting.

The KNN Dumaguete Bureau is established to create stories and features on children-related issues for national television release.

This is a revolutionary project of Unicef that involves children’s participation in media. Probe Media Foundation coordinates the overall production and editing of the children’s output and the Philippine Information Agency supervises the production of the bureau’s junior TV reporters.
