The programme focused on the values, practices, and environments that support journalists\u2019 well-being, sense of purpose, and professional identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following pre-meetings of six EJTA focus groups and the Tartu4Tomorrow task group, participants were engaged in discussions about happiness in the profession and examined how journalism educators can help students maintain hope, confidence, and commitment to a meaningful career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A central message throughout the event was journalism education should equip future journalists with the emotional intelligence, ethical grounding, and resilience needed to navigate current and future challenges while preserving their sense of purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The training provided an inspiring platform for sharing best practices, developing cross-border collaborations, and reflecting on the future of journalism education.
