Twinning
IMS twinning activities within the Media Cooperation Programme for the Arab World and Iran refer to partnerships established between journalists or media institutions in Denmark and the Arab region. A partnership should be focused on practical collaboration between media professionals. Through twinning, IMS aims to mutually strengthen the knowledge about Arab and Danish societies among media and their audiences, and to foster networks between media practitioners across the borders.Archive

With Egypt's first democratic elections coming up in the fall, the trip to Denmark, is an opportunity for both the Middle Eastern and Danish journalists to exchange experiences and strengthen knowledge on elections coverage.
