Reflecting on the importance of citizen journalism, Zakour said, "I think citizen journalism is a new frontier.
Career journalists are often beholden to the needs of the newsroom and cannot devote as much energy to what may be seen as unimportant, so training members of the public to self-report is a huge step to transparency and bringing awareness, especially so with issues of climate change."
Cari Bois is a national community that brings together communities, activists, academics, scientists and journalists, to tell their own stories around the environmental impact of the extractive sector in Trinidad and Tobago, and wider irresponsible development.
