BBG conducted a two-day training at the Radio Today Media Academy. The training, “Health in the Slums: Providing Services to Bangladesh’s Poorest,” included sessions conducted by VOA veteran reporter Sarkar Kabiruddin. Experts outlined the medical challenges facing slum dwellers, and journalists explored ways to better report on societies that are marginalized.
