▶Objectives
The project aims to enhance the digital skills of tourism journalists by providing training on new media tools such as social media, video production, podcasting, and data-driven storytelling. The project also seeks to validate these resources through workshops, strengthen cross-border collaboration, and establish the foundation for a future VET curriculum on new media in tourism journalism.
▶Activities
The project will include: 1) Research and creation of the New Media Guide for tourism journalists, 2) Production of video tutorials on digital tools, 3) A 3-day workshop in Italy for tourism journalists to validate the materials, and 4) An Interactive Workshop in Romania to disseminate project results and improve participants' skills in data-driven storytelling through collaborative activities.
▶Impact
The project will produce several tangible outcomes: a 60-page New Media Guide, 6 video tutorials (5 to 10 minutes), and validated materials from the workshops. Intangible results include improved digital skills for participants, strengthened collaboration between Italian and Romanian tourism journalists, and the foundation for developing a future VET curriculum on new media tools for journalism.
