NCCAR’s Daily Media Scan – Launch of New and Improved Features

NCCAR is proud to launch a new version of the NCCAR Daily Media Scan – an invaluable tool for those who need to quickly find out about the developments unfolding for the people of the Arab World. Parliamentarians and their staff, diplomats, academics, NGO leaders and the Canadian public all use this free, time-saving service.

Each day, NCCAR’s Media Team reviews an NCCAR-designed sophisticated system of newsfeeds that bring in news and views from over 50 well-known Canadian and international sources and hand-picks the most important and relevant  articles, conveniently categorized by region.

• Stay on top of the rapidly-moving developments in one place AND save time and effort while doing so
• Supplement Canadian coverage with diverse international coverage
• Have access anywhere, anytime – on your desktop or mobile
• You can access the original article – and then share with friends

Some “new and improved” features include:

1. A “Featured Commentary” section for opinion and analysis articles  – many from international sources to supplement the very few available in Canadian media
2. The ability to view news by region of interest
3. A more user-friendly layout, look and feel

Your comments and feedback are always appreciated at nccar@nccar.ca.

Help us to grow our educational impact so that Canadians learn about what is often missing from Canadian media by supplementing with the best news and views from international sources.

NCCAR does not necessarily endorse or share viewpoints expressed in the selected articles. We encourage readers to respond to coverage from any given media outlet in order to express their own views.
