dc.description.abstractThis research attempts to address and evaluate the 2007 UNESCO Model Curricula after a regional consultation meeting on the possibilities of adaptation of the model in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries of the Arab region at the University of Bahrain. The model was supposed to be a generic model that could be localised and adapted to match each country’s specific needs. The rapid strides in different mass media industries in the Arab region have opened up new opportunities for the field of journalism education and the profession itself as never before.This transformation of societies have urged global standards in educational components and curricula that address specialized skills and knowledge, and opened up new possibilities of launching education programmes in journalism at new universities located at various geographic locations of the region. As a result, both local regional and international agencies have come up with offers for undergraduate and post graduate/Masters programmes in Journalism or communication studies.en_ZA
