News doesn't just appear on Twitter. It goes through a process of collecting and gathering and fact checking. But in a country that is still new to the idea of a free press, Omar Chatriwala and Dohanews are getting the community involved to keep journalism alive and safe in Qatar.
Omar Chatriwala is a journalist, co-founder and publisher of DohaNews. He has previously worked at Al Jazeera English and the Doha Center for Media Freedom.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
