The workshop will take place during the Bayeux-Calvados Award for war correspondents, from 3 to 7 October. Organized since 1994, this is an annual event that pays tribute to and brings together journalists working in precarious conditions whom enable the public free access to information.

During the five-day program, NOOR photographers and agency co-founders Pep Bonet (ES) and Kadir van Lohuizen (NL) will share key insights, experiences and tools to help workshop participants develop their own long term transmedia projects. The program includes one on one portfolio reviews with each tutor, group editing sessions, along with presentations and discussions covering everything from transmedia project conception, budget development and production, to collaboration and dissemination. Tuition and meals during the workshop are free through the generous support of Nikon France.
