The MoU formalizes a pipeline between academic media training and active NGO work — giving students a professional context to apply communication, documentation, and storytelling skills.
Community interaction through the NGO is expected to develop adaptability, empathy, and intercultural communication — competencies that classroom environments cannot replicate.
The partnership supports the department’s focus on socially responsible journalism as a professional standard, not merely an academic concept.
