From the Journalists Themselves

Mazin

Journalist, Northwest Syria

After completing API's investigative journalism training, Mazin attended his first job interview at a professional media outlet — something he hadn't considered possible before. He credited the training with giving him not just skills but the professional confidence to present himself as a reporter.

Mahmoud

Reporter, Aleppo

Mahmoud was accepted for a full-time position at a regional media organization following his participation in an API training program. He was one of three journalists from the same cohort hired within six months of completing the course.

Musab

Documentary Journalist, Syria

Musab participated in API's training courses in 2018. He has since built a career in documentary journalism, citing API's practical training approach and the network of contacts it gave him as foundational to everything he has produced since.

What Participants Say

"API's training was the first time I had structured feedback on my work. I left understanding not just what to do differently, but why — and that's the difference that stays with you."

Mohamad Ayman · Journalist

"I had been working as a journalist for two years before API. After the program, I felt like I was starting over — with a real foundation this time. It changed how I approach every story."

Obaida Alumar · Reporter

"What API gave me was a standard to hold myself to. Before, I was doing journalism by instinct. After, I was doing it by principle. That is a difference you feel every single day."

Dana Al-Khatib · Journalist
