Yemeni Female Media Forum holds session on Internet [Archives:2004/748/Local News]

Under the auspices of the Minister of Telecommunications and Information Technology, the Yemeni Female Media Forum began on Saturday June 19 its second training session for female journalists. This session aims to enable them to interact efficiently with the Internet and personal computers.
The thirty-female journalists involved in the session from various Yemeni media organizations will receive five days of practical training on using the Internet and personal computers in order to enable them to make contact effectively with others in Yemen and overseas.
The Minister instructed the training of the 30 journalists at the expense of the Ministry, in cooperation with the Yemeni Female Media Forum
It is worth mentioning that the forum organized last April a similar training session for thirty female journalists on the use of Internet, in cooperation with the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung. The first statistics on female journalists in Yemen, collected by the Forum, indicate that only 19 of 360 female journalists have E-mail addresses.
