By Zarko Bozovic, RTCG

During my one-week stay at BHRT, I had the opportunity to become familiar with the work and organization of this media house through engagement in both radio and television. On the radio, I followed the news and hosted programmes, while on television I was involved in the production of the news programme.

During my stay, I gained insight into the working conditions, the way the editorial teams operate, and I attended their editorial meeting, which gave me a better understanding of the decision-making process. I also had the opportunity to actively participate in the work – I covered the event “Ceremonial Academy marking the 35th anniversary of the Association of Citizens Originating from Sandžak” for radio, where I recorded two interviews. Additionally, for television, I conducted two interviews – one with the President of the Association of Pljevlja Citizens in Sarajevo and another with a well-known journalist originally from Montenegro. During the visit, the already well-established long-term cooperation between BHRT and RTCG was further strengthened, enabling the material I produced to be shared and broadcast on RTCG.

This experience allowed me to gain insight into working in conditions that are significantly more modest compared to my home institution, RTCG, while still producing high-quality content that meets high professional standards thanks to a skilled and dedicated team.
