Teaching Journalism for Sustainable Development: New Syllabi

This publication offers a collection of model syllabi that include ideas, methods, and materials related to teaching subjects related to media and sustainable development. It was designed to guide and inspire teachers and planners working in journalism education and is intended as a resource to be adapted for local contexts. The publication builds on a previously published United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Model Curricula for Journalism Education, and includes new syllabi covering emerging or particularly relevant themes in journalism education globally.
The syllabi covers the following themes, all of which "have a clear and demonstrable link to sustainable development."

• Journalism and sustainable development
• Ecological journalism (or Eco-journalism)
• Reporting sustainable tourism
• Reporting migration, with a focus on refugees
• Ethical investigative journalism
• Digital media, social networks and the changing face of journalism
• Advocacy journalism: participation, representation and community
• International collaborative reporting
