10 journalists from local media have been trained in improving their skills in investigating and reporting on public procurements in the country. The trainings included types and procedures of public procurements stipulated in the new Law on public procurement, as well as the public procurement practices, based on the reports from monitoring of the public procurements done by the Center for Civil Communications. In addition, the journalists learnt how to use and search better the electronic system of public procurements in order to acquire necessary information for their reports. Each participant developed his/her own action plan for future investigation in public procurements based on the knowledge, skills and tips acquired during the training. Besides on their host media, the investigative news reports on public procurements will be published in the Monthly anti corruption magazine MAK of the Center for Civil Communications. http://www.flickr.com/photos/cccenter/sets/72157623831287711/  

The Center for Civil Communications is implementing an initiative for a greater involvement of the media into investigating and reporting the public procurement in the country, under the “Monitoring of the public procurement project”. Thus, besides the trainings for journalists from nation-wide and local media on enhancing their skills in investigating and reporting on public procurements, an additional support for journalists’ investigations in this direction will be provided. Therefore, CCC is inviting all interested journalists to fill the Plan for an investigation in the public procurement which can be downloaded here, and to send it us back by email, no later than April 18, 2010. Six best proposals in total, both from national and from local media, will get a financial support to cover the expenses of the research.
