Journalism of Tolerance

This project aims to mitigate xenophobic discourse in Turkish media and foster inclusion and social cohesion through capacity building training for journalists on Journalism of Tolerance, advocacy programmes and research on xenophobia and media. Although we are initially conducting this project in Turkey, we intend to carry out similar projects in many other countries. Journalism of Tolerance asks the questions of who? what? where? and how? through critical, diagnostic, and intervention-centric methods within the critical constructivist epistemology to pursue ‘pragmatic objectivity’ as a tool towards the goals of truth, fair judgment and ethical action, and hence helps create a society where tolerance, inclusion and solidarity prevail.
