\n\tPreface
\n\tContamination of and disorder in environment is the cause for occurrence of certain ecological, economical and social problems; it creates obstacles for human being to become a personality and decent\/worthy man. Presently contamination of and disorder in environment creates not only economical and social problems for humanity and it gives a push\/stimulates new huge ecological complications for future. Climate changes occupies essential place among new ecological problems generated from disorder and contamination of environment. Whirlwind and stream, flood happened in various regions of the world, drought, heavy rains and flood observed in various parts caused huge damages in infrastructures of cities and settlements, industry and agriculture. Consequently lives of people, their food and ecological safety are under danger. As the climate changes have global character it is kept under focus throughout the world. Proposed concepts; held considerable international conferences including the World Summit for prevention of these problems once more underline special stringency of the problem and measurements directed to resolution of these challenges. Climate changes and ecological problems lying on the bottom of these processes on most cases are related to people\u2019s industrial and agricultural activities and in life to their mode of life and behavior. Activities or behavior procreated by people and undesirable from ecological point of view or risky for environment in most cases happen because of unawareness. Therefore it is particularly important to aware the population on causes procreating ecological problems and the issue of climate changes derived from these problems; about the real and potential complications of these problems; and improve their knowledge and capacity in related sphere.
\n\tRole of media in educating the population on these urgent problems is supposed to be great and in most cases decisive. It is not accidental that UNESCO held a special summit in Paris in September 2009 and the event was devoted to the role of media in overcoming problems related to climate changes. The Paris Declaration adopted in this summit suggested strengthening the publicity media and educative activities on climate changes. For achievement of these aims there was organized a special training-workshop for media journalists and future journalists-students in December, 2010 in Baku within the frame of UNESCO Project. The workshop was organized by Azerbaijan Press Council, Azerbaijan National MaB (\u201cMan & Biosphere\u201d) Committee, UNESCO and International Eurasia Press Fund with Azerbaijan National Commission \u2013 UNESCO initiative. The aim of the event was to improve media journalists\u2019 knowledge and abilities on issues like climate changes, the factors causing these cases and the ways of their prevention; and this event was highly evaluated by international community. Publication of a special handbook on stated issues is the first step made in this direction and the handbook serves as a database with conforming information for media journalists.
\n\tPreparation of the Training Program in the Republic of Azerbaijan is one of the next steps made in this sphere and it will be useful for the development of professional scientific journalism in the nation.
\n\tIt is planned to have 32 academic hours for a semester; 20 hours for lectures and 12 for practical classes.<\/p>\n
