The Transparency Reporting Network is intended to be a resource for all transparency reporting trainers worldwide. Its members include the alumni of the two-week seminars, as well as most of the seminar’s speakers and others who wish to contribute. The seminar was designed to show the trainers what the components of transparency reporting consist of and how to train students and professional journalists in the techniques.
