ALIN invites
people around Ng’arua Maarifa Centre and beyond on voluntary basis to learn
basic article writing, photography and videography as approaches to telling
stories to the world audience. ALIN will provide a platform for the Citizen
reporters to post their stories. The platform includes access to computers at
Ng’arua Maarifa Centre and use of Laikipia Rural Voices (LRV) which has been
developed for Citizen Journalism purposes.
The
CReporters are then trained on use of Internet resources including, blogging,
uploading and downloading content.
Everything
that's posted on ALIN CJB must be vetted by a team of moderators who reviews
the posted content and pulls material that is flagged by the community as in
violation of CReporters guidelines. Depending on sensitivity of the story, the
moderators will vet and undertake fact-checking and verifying the details of a
story.
