We are so excited to begin our first ever Parliament Express program with 12 talented young writers from across Victoria. During this 12-week program, these young writers will be working with facilitator and Voiceworks Editor Zowie Douglas Kinghorn learn about the parliamentary process and its relationship to print and digital media, covering reportage and investigative journalism, as well as how to research, plan and conduct interviews with politicians and experts.

Fortnightly workshops and guest speaker sessions will be combined with one-on-one mentoring for participants to build their skills in proofreading, editing and pitching work for publication, with opportunity for each participant to publish up to two pieces of writing on Parliament of Victoria’s blog at the program’s conclusion.
