On 5 October, PARM and Africa 21 hosted a webinar to officially present the PARM Stories Challenge to journalists and media professionals wishing to participate. The webinar was a great opportunity for the attendees to learn about the objectives, timeline, benefits, and selection criteria of the challenge, meet the jury members and ask questions.

The active participation of the attendees and future participants enabled a privileged moment of exchange with all the jury members who answered more than a dozen questions and doubts that were raised by participants both in English and French.
