SRI LANKA: Journalists practice interview techniques during a workshop at the East Media House in Ampara, established by Internews in early 2007. The media house provides training and supports radio programs that include voices from Muslim, Tamil and Sinhala communities. With ethnic conflict returning to Sri Lanka, International Women's Day programming told stories about problems faced by war widows.
"The Media House will help build harmony among the three communities as well as the journalists"
