Alannah & Madeline Foundation: Media Training

In 2024, Upstride Agency partnered with the Alannah & Madeline Foundation to enhance their media presence and capacity.

The foundation, dedicated to supporting children affected by family violence and advocating for young people’s rights, sought to strengthen its media outreach and communications. Our engagement involved media consulting, training, and mentoring to elevate the media team's effectiveness and impact.

MEDIA TRAINING

Delivered targeted media training sessions designed to improve the skills of the foundation’s spokespersons and media team. 

MENTORING & WORKSHOPS

Provided ongoing mentoring and conducted workshops to support the media team’s professional development. These sessions covered best practices in media relations, strategic communications, and content creation, helping the team implement effective media strategies.

MESSAGE DEVELOPMENT
