The University of the Philippines College of Mass Communication (UP CMC) has chosen 15 print, broadcast and online journalists and a graduating journalism student as fellows in the 15th Lopez Jaena Journalism Workshop.

The fellows from the Philippines are Winnie Aguilar (Krusada, ABS-CBN), Jesus Miguel Agreda (Sun.Star Baguio), Ferdinand Cabrera (ABS-CBN Cotabato), Leonard Corrales (News correspondent, Cagayan de Oro), Joseph Deveza (Philippine Daily Inquirer Cagayan De Oro), Bobby Labalan (Media Solutions Bicol), Macky Macaspac (Pinoy Weekly), Ronalyn Olea (Bulatlat),  Ryan Rosauro (Philippine Daily Inquirer Mindanao), Lady Ann Salem (Tudla Productions), Richie Salgado (The Freeman Cebu), Raymund Villanueva (Kodao Productions) and Michelle Zoleta (Filipino Times Lucena), Che delos Reyes (PCIJ), and Adine Bernardo (PCIJ).

The 15th Lopez Jaena Journalism Workshop is the UP CMC’s contribution to the global campaign against media killings which will be highlighted by the International Day to End Impunity on November 23.
