Pour la cinquième année consécutive, la Commission européenne offre une occasion unique à un groupe de journalistes « Santé » de l’UE de participer à un atelier qui explore le don d’organe et la transplantation sous toutes les coutures.
Offering moving testimonials from those affected and discussions with top experts and top ranking EU officials on the latest developments at EU and National level as well as ethical, scientific, economic and communication questions related to organ donation and transplantation, this workshop is truly a “one stop shop” for journalists who wish to play an important role in helping patients by raising awareness on this important issue.
To apply, please fill in the online application form https://adobeformscentral.com/?f=7sdB04BJ1tpL%2A7NgaSnhwg# and click on “submit”. The deadline for applications is 24 October 2014. If you have any problems with the form, please contact organ.donation@newstravel.eu.
All expressions of interest will be considered, and your place will be confirmed at the beginning of November.
Due to the limited number of places available, selection will be based on a good spread of EU countries as well as the motivation of the applicants. For journalists selected, travel and accommodation will be arranged and covered.
Please find attached the draft programme (with some speakers still to be confirmed…).
You can also read articles written by journalists after participating in the previous editions:
