by: Michael Saunders

The United States Department of State (DoS) is the US federal executive department responsible for the nation's international relations.

The DoS is headed by the Secretary of State, which leads the department to operate within the scope of the nation's diplomatic missions and in the implementation of the US government's foreign policies and diplomat efforts.

The office of the US Mission to Tunisia, which is under the DoS, is seeking applications for the Media Training Workshops program for the Tunisian people through the The US Embassy in Tunis, Tunisia.

The US Embassy in Tunisia is going to enter into a cooperative agreement with an eligible applicant and is prepared to administer an anticipated amount of $100,000 for the Media Training Workshops project.

The Media Training Workshop project is driven towards the desire to improve the political reporting abilities of the Tunisian media, and at the same time enhance the general managerial skills of the Tunisian news editors.
