Gitte Luk teaching the third workshop “”Writing for Photojournalists” to the 12 Egyptian photographers from her home in Aarhus.

The 12 participants follow Gitte Luk’s lectures online. Every day, they do writing exercises that are discussed and evaluated in the group on the following day. As a part of the workshop, the participants have individual coaching sessions with Gitte Luk where they discuss and develop their final photo stories.

Eslam Gomaa, Islam Safwat and Moataz Zaki sit together in Cairo to follow the online class.

The workshop is the third in a series of four workshops organized by The Danish-Egyptian Dialogue Initiative (DEDI) and DMJX Photojournalism.

After this workshop, the 12 participants will work on independant photo stories. The stories will be edited and finalized during the fourth workshop in March.
