There is a lot of lack of interest from journalists, because we chose this topic because it is an area little explored in our class\u201d said the FMJIG leader.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that his organization intends to stimulate and motivate journalists to carry out investigative reports in the country, taking into account the existence of relative freedom of expression in the Angolan press, particularly when talking about the Angolan Executive&#8217;s anti-corruption program.<\/p>\n<p>He added that active social networks provide opportunities for professionals to investigate the facts and monitor public assets.<\/p>\n<p>Milena Costa asked participants to improve investigative reporting techniques, knowledge about professional ethics and deontology and knowledge about the legislative package on the limits of the Press Law and the status of journalists.<\/p>\n<p>On the occasion, the general secretary of the Union of Angolan Journalists (SJA), Teixeira Ca\u0302ndido, reinforced that the journalist must have the ability to monitor public assets and investigate, in greater depth, cases that appear on social media as complaints or clues .<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fight against corruption is not a problem for the courts. Our training tells us that we must monitor the management of public affairs, which can then lead to criminal proceedings. And we have to encourage professionals to pursue information until they find proof&#8221;, he stressed.<\/p>\n<p>He added that there is nothing that prevents journalists from carrying out their work, especially because the Law does not place limits on investigating the management of the treasury, for example.<\/p>\n<p>Teixeira Ca\u0302ndido made it known that in order for investigative work to exist and be carried out, there cannot be conditioning in the editorial lines of media organizations and censorship of materials, practices that discourage and mobilize professionals to carry out investigative journalism.<\/p>\n<p>The Forum, promoted by the Forum of Women Journalists for Gender Equality, ends this Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/angola\">Angola<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
