We’re excited to officially launch the European Association of Journalists & Communication Professionals in Asia (JOCPA) —a unique platform created to empower European journalists, media, and communications experts working across Asia. As professionals navigating the complexities of a fast-evolving media landscape, JOCPA is here to foster collaboration, exchange knowledge, and advocate for press freedom and ethical communication practices.
Why JOCPA?
In recent years, the media industry has seen rapid changes, especially in Asia, where emerging trends, technologies, and geopolitical factors are reshaping the way we work. As European professionals living and working in this dynamic region, it can be challenging to stay connected with peers, maintain professional development, and have access to the resources needed to thrive.
That’s where JOCPA comes in. We are committed to creating a supportive and connected community where members can benefit from:
- Networking events that bring together like-minded professionals from across Asia and Europe
- Conferences, roundtable dialogues, and webinars led by industry leaders, providing insights into the latest trends and best practices
- Exclusive media resources and research to help you stay informed and competitive in your field
- Advocacy efforts supporting press freedom and ethical communication throughout the region
- Mentorship programs aimed at connecting experienced professionals with newcomers to the Asian media landscape
What’s Next?
Stay tuned for more exciting updates as we roll out upcoming events, member stories, and opportunities to engage with the community. This blog will be your go-to source for all things JOCPA, from industry insights to event highlights and member contributions.
We look forward to growing this vibrant network and building lasting connections across borders. Whether you’re already part of the media landscape in Asia or considering joining us, JOCPA is your home for professional growth and collaboration.
