An increasingly important aspect of the CEELI Institute’s continuing engagement with judiciaries across the region involves exploration of the relationships between the judiciary, the media, and the public. Discussions addressing this topic are in high demand among judges who are faced with increasing media pressure, especially while handling politically sensitive cases and high-level corruption cases. This workshop for judges is designed to enhance their communication skills in engaging with the media, thereby fostering improved relations between the judiciary and the media. Participants will refine their use of various communication channels and enhance their public speaking proficiency. Additionally, the workshop will address crisis communication strategies, including how judges can respond to public attacks on themselves or the judiciary, and the parameters surrounding their interactions with the public, both institutionally and individually. The sessions will also highlight best practices for fostering a constructive relationship between the judiciary, the media and the public, emphasizing responsible courtroom reporting. Furthermore, judges will gain insights into mobile journalism, equipping them with contemporary tools to navigate the evolving media landscape effectively.
