So this type of training motivated researcher can publish their popular science article for the benefit of society, according to the organizer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Nepal, people and the government are still unaware about science. Thus Science Journalism has a greater responsibility to overcome such rumors, according to a report of \u201cScience Media and People one day policy dialogue\u201d held in the Department of Information Kathmandu, Nepal on March 31, 2013. \u00a0&#8220;With this acknowledgement, Students of Science and Technology should write their own research story to the public benefits\u2014so that\u2014RHF organized such SJT, which will be fruitful to the researchers,&#8221; said Dr. Dinesh Raj Bhuju, General Secretary of RHF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Enlightened the importance of S&amp;T, and it&#8217;s complications for dissemination of news in a proper manner which sometimes possess the opposite reaction too, &#8221; he added. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants like SJT course content that was taught in training, but they were unsatisfied in disturbance while communicating due to poor internet connections and technical issues during training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the participants Dipak Khadka highlighted training would be more efficient, if organized via physical classes rather than virtual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, EGH will organize such a type of SJT for science students in future. SJT was taught by Laxman Dangol, Editor of RevoScience News, who has been working in the field of science journalism since more than ten years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Environmental Graduates in Himalaya (EGH), in association with Resources Himalaya Foundation (RHF) organized Science Journalism Training (SJT) via virtual platform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20081,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20080","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-culture"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training.jpg",966,629,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training-200x200.jpg",200,200,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training-614x400.jpg",614,400,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training-768x500.jpg",750,488,true],"large":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training-675x440.jpg",675,440,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training.jpg",966,629,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training.jpg",966,629,false],"ultp_layout_landscape_large":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training.jpg",966,629,false],"ultp_layout_landscape":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training.jpg",870,566,false],"ultp_layout_portrait":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training.jpg",600,391,false],"ultp_layout_square":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training.jpg",600,391,false],"newspaper-x-single-post":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training-760x490.jpg",760,490,true],"newspaper-x-recent-post-big":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training-550x360.jpg",550,360,true],"newspaper-x-recent-post-list-image":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training-95x65.jpg",95,65,true],"web-stories-poster-portrait":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training.jpg",640,417,false],"web-stories-publisher-logo":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training.jpg",96,63,false],"web-stories-thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/sjt-training.jpg",150,98,false]},"author_info":{"info":["RevoScience"]},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/category\/culture\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Culture<\/a>","tag_info":"Culture","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20080","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20080"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20080\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20081"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20080"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20080"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.revoscience.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
