AMMAN — The Jordan Media Institute (JMI) on Wednesday launched a workshop dubbed “Press coverage in conflict zones and journalists’ professional and personal security”.

The event is organised in cooperation with the Swedish Postcode Lottery and Reporters without Borders, with the participation of 25 higher education students from the JMI and seven trainers.

HRH Princess Rym Al Ali, founder of JMI, and Niclas Kjellström-Matseke, CEO of the Swedish Postcode Lottery, attended the launch, the statement said.
