On September 4, 2020, the young journalist Ayman Khawaja graduated from the media preparation course set up by the National File Organization to Support Youth in Northern Iraq, to increase his knowledge and apply what he learned in his field of work.


Mr. Ayman said that he benefited from deeper understanding of the media world and its ethics in this session. He added that he had tried in his life to be a comic presenter for some kind of songs, but his friends and acquaintances did not like this direction.
He mentioned that he entered the media field and had the opportunity to join the media preparation course this month and obtained the course certificate.
He added that during the time of staying at home due to the outbreak of the Corona virus, he called singers from his nation to sing from home and publish it on Facebook, and this idea gained acceptance and more than two hundred and fifty Assyrian artists responded to this call from all over the world.
Regarding his learning from the course, he said that we learned the basics of ethics that a journalist should possess in terms of impartiality, professionalism, credibility (objectivity), balance and transparency. As well as the elements of building the news or information and the need to answer the five questions of who, what, when, where and why.
He also added, he will work with Ishtar TV channel in northern Iraq to apply what he has learned in the field of work.
