Atlanta, GA (Vocus/PRWEB) January 06, 2011
After much more than a year of preparing and trial productions in Africa and Asia, Global Wellness Frontline News (GHFN) is now assigning video newsgathering crews worldwide to cover significant global well being stories in partnership with selected broadcasters and Web platforms.
As a nonprofit project with a mission to create video news stories on global health problems that are largely under-reported by mainstream media, GHFN will focus its coverage on illnesses that primarily impact impoverished populations in creating nations – malaria, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and neglected tropical diseases such as river blindness and trachoma – and on maternal mortality and food security.
Funded by nonpartisan donors and operating independently, GHFN will follow strict journalistic standards and produce high-good quality video news material for broadcast globally by tv networks and wide distribution on the Internet.
GHFN’s executive editor, Gary Strieker, stated the project’s crews and producers are exceptionally qualified for their assignments. “All of our newsgathering teams have years of knowledge in broadcast television,” he stated. “And most importantly, they have first-hand experience in tracking down health stories in challenging scenarios in Africa, Asia and Latin America. We’re undoubtedly going to set some new standards in global well being reporting.”
