Mining Journalism Training (MJT) brings together mining experts and senior journalists to share their knowledge with the next generation of media professionals. This includes practicing  journalists and journalism students. 

Stories about mining feature prominently in media publications all over the world due to the industry's significant participation in economic activities.   

Menar recognised the need to establish the annual Mining Journalism Training workshop to promote the sharing of accurate information and to add to our growing list of educational projects.  

MJT has no doubt proven to be a highlight in Menar’s calendar of events. The two-part educational event comprises of a seminar which features a list of speakers and a visit to one of Menar’s mining operations.  

The aim is to expose media practitioners and journalism students to the complexities of the industry, in hopes that the knowledge would empower them to tell compelling stories.  

This is not a one-way engagement as our team also leverages the opportunity to gain media knowledge from our interactions with the journalists who attend the sessions.  We view this as a shared experience between two industries that play different but equally important roles in society.
