As Macedonians around the world contend with the indignation of being called “North Macedonian” by most of the world’s media channels covering the Euro2020, The United Macedonia Diaspora (UMD) and Macedonian Human Rights Movement International (MHRMI) have launched campaigns to raise awareness of the issue.
The UMD has launched a media/press reporting kit to help international journalists report correctly without making errors to offend Macedonians. The press kit also contains useful information about Macedonia that journalists can use as a reference when reporting on the country.
MHRMI launched an action alert, which enables users to send a pre-made written email to major broadcasters in an effort to raise awareness of the illegal name change and the offensive terms such as “North Macedonia – North Macedonian”.
