Investigative journalism in pills for italian regions: here comes Laura Conti Days



by Annalisa Tancredi  

The recipe for this summer to fight Ecomafia is the administration of investigative journalism pills, for 4 days, from 12th to 15th July at the Castello dei Principi Capano in Pollica (SA). Legambiente and Editorial The New Ecology prescribed it organizing, during the new event Festambiente and Legality - words, music and food against the eco-mafia, a Summer School for all eco-reporters who want to explore the world of journalism and communication environment.  

During the "Laura Conti Days. Course-workshop survey in environmental journalism and writing", the editors of the magazine The New Ecology will lead a series of editorial workshops aimed at acquiring the basics of investigative environmental journalism. Moreover, in 4 afternoons of summer school, it will be possible to meet prominent journalists and authors of the great eco-Italian investigation as: Domenico Iannacone (journalist, Presa Diretta author, Robinson), Toni Mira (Avvenire Assignment editor), Santo Della Volpe (TG3Assignment editor, Libera Informazione Director) and Giovanni Tizian (journalist, author of Gothic, Enzo Biagi 2012 price). 

The event was organized in Pollica to honor Angelo Vassallo, the former mayor of the Municipality killed on 5th September 2010 probably by Camorra. "The best way to remember Angelo Vassallo and defeat those who sought the death is to consolidate the close relationship between Pollica and the partnership between environment and legality - says Legambiente on its site – From this steams Festambiente e Legalità: four beautiful days to visit the Cilento, Pollica and all the places of Angelo Vassallo memories". 

The Laura Conti Days are also associated with the selection process for access to the XII edition of the Euro-Mediterranean Laura Conti Environmental Journalism Course that will be held at the Campus of Savona from 5th November to 14th December 2012, a landmark for those who want to deepen the teaching in this area. 

Summer School editorial workshops will start at 9.30 am and afternoon meeting at 3 pm. The total costs are 300 euro including training, 4 nights accommodation in double, 4 lunches, bus and Festambiente and Legality shows.

These are the resources of tomorrow for the construction of a new happiness and a new economy" (Angelo Vassallo).
