Notes on the 2nd UNESCO South East Europe workshop on science journalism

We are working hard to keep this highly challenging and rewarding experience alive, after the second very succesful UNESCO South East Europe workshop held in Podgorica, Montenegro, in September 2014.

I want to thank the many great people that worked with me to make this esperience unforgettable, starting from Mario Scalet and Rosanna Santesso from the UNESCO Venice Office to the talented and skilled colleagues who shared their knowledge and vision with me and with the attending fellows.
