In the past, traditional media has held significant influence in public communications. “These Channels have kept citizens well informed about societal issues and empowered them to contribute to positive change and inclusive development,” he noted.
With the rise of social media platforms, the media landscape is undergoing a profound transformation. Journalism and public relations play crucial roles in society, giving voice to the people.
“Effective communication is more than just messaging; it’s about building bridges, fostering understanding, and driving positive change,” said Dr. Shashank Goel.
Honoring Vietnam’s colorful cultural heritage, exciting journey of economic development, and rich democratic traditions, he expressed his hope that the training program would further strengthen the bilateral relations between Vietnam and India.
