TV Korça and Radio Korça, local branches of the public service media in Albania, have very important functions and enjoy a high level of trust among their local community, situated in the south-east of the country. This is one of the most significant findings of the Audience Perception and Size survey conducted as part of the ‘Media for All’ project. TV Korça achieves very
As a result of intensive training on data visualization, held on 10 and 11 June, journalists of Lozničke novosti started publishing articles in a more interactive and engaging way. Namely, they recently published their first fully illustrated article with interactive graphics using the Flourish tool. “The training was extremely interesting and useful, I learned something new and opened the door to new knowledge. I
RTV Nikšić started live streaming events – from municipal assembly sessions up to sports and cultural events – on their web portal, as well as Facebook pages and YouTube channel. This new service should result in better monetization and closer collaboration with the local community. “With this project we want to strengthen our presence in the online space,” said Vladimir Utješinović from RTV Nikšić.
Radio Titograd marked two major achievements this week – its fifth birthday and the launching of the new website. On 13 July 2016, around 7 pm, the radio started broadcasting for the first time. Božo Bulatović, executive director of Radio Titograd, vividly remembers that day. “We started our program with a song from the legendary Miladin Šobić,” said Bulatović adding that since its beginnings
Tuzla-based, RTV Slon, started producing podcasts targeting the vast diaspora from Tuzla region living predominantly in European countries. So far, there were more than 10 episodes aired online and initial reactions from the public are more than positive.

The goal of every media outlet is to grow and to be sustainable. Recognizing the need for ensuring revenue growth over time and providing the resources for the media outlet to operate successfully is not an issue. Implementing this is practice – is.

The people I communicated with were passion-driven, dragon-fighting, occasionally self-proclaimed Don Quixotes – but they were adamant in their pursuit to deliver the truth to the citizens they serve.
