The article first introduces the concept of mainstreaming binary oppositions in reporting the `other', and the recent debate on media peacebuilding interventions, and then describes the organization, realization and evaluation of three joint journalism training workshops with Greek and Turkish students from the main university departments of communication of the two countries. The workshops were organized by the international non-governmental organization (NGO), Search for Common Ground, with funding from the European Commission, the Council of Europe and the USAID office in Ankara, and took place in both Greece and Turkey during the years 2000-2003. The results of this research places such peacebuilding journalism education interventions in the context of the professional culture and the other social determinants of journalism (McNair, 1998), and argues for a more holistic approach to media peacebuilding interventions, which would include the other market, political, professional and public aspects of media governance.
