JHR Jordan launches Media Monitoring Study

Journalists for Human Rights launched a quantitative and qualitative media monitoring study prepared by the researcher in media affairs, Muhammad Ghunaim. The study entitled “The extent of the media use of the JHR methodology PANEL in media content.” was carried out as part of its project “Increasing access to information through the media in Jordan” funded by The Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Jordan.
 
By using the qualitative and quantitative monitoring of the mass media and their coverage of human rights issues, the study aimed to analyze the quality of the media content of human rights journalism in Jordan, by focusing on analyzing the “JHR’s PANEL approach for Human Rights journalism.
