    Luanda — The director of the Journalist Training Centre (Cefojor), Albino Carlos, Saturday in Luanda, said that the first workshop on the Millennium Development Goals will enable the Angolan professionals to better play the role of advocates of the goals to be attained until 2015.

    Addressing the closing of the course designed for journalists, Albino Carlos said the media will now be able to work towards reducing hunger and poverty, child death rate and ensuring the access to education, promotion of equality between men and women, improvement of mother and child health, combat against Hiv/Aids and other disease, as well as environment sustainability.

    He said that the Millennium Development Goals training programme aims at equipping journalists with the skills to take their social responsibility role as an instrument of citizenship based on the role they play toward resolving the problems affecting the citizens.
