Stage II of the "Ethical Coverage of Children’s Issues in Media"
project is implemented by the Georgian Charter of Journalist Ethics
with the support of UNICEF. Building upon Stage I (completed in
2013), the project monitors and analyses electronic, broadcast and
print media coverage of children’s issues and media adherence to
ethical and professional standards[1].
Project activities include media monitoring, workshops for
journalists, meetings with media representatives, and
identification of in-depth works on children’s issues. This report
summarises media monitoring carried out during the period 15
January 2014 to 1 June 2014 and sets out findings, analysis,
violations and recommendations. A separate sub-chapter is dedicated
in the report to the assessment of the coverage of children’s
issues on June 1, International Day for Protection of Children.
