The trainers were both male and females and were skilful in their relevant fields. NAI supported lunch and two time tea in breaks.

When I heard about this training, I was so happy that Afghans have a good chance to learn and go ahead and this field of media, but I thought it may be only for males. When I knew that both male and females can participate so I was so excited and joined this training, no we are 50% females of all the class.

If we look back to our 30 yours media history, we will notice that the current government of Afghanistan has given more rights and opportunities to media.
