Open and free media landscape with divergent opinions and ideas is a key aspect in democratic and stable societies. For media to be most effective in serving their communities, the range of broadcasters, print and online platforms must reflect the diversity and range of opinions of their audiences. It also means fostering the participation of ethnic and linguistic minorities, persons with disabilities and marginalised groups, to have their voices heard and actively contribute to media content creation and policy planning.
Key objectives
Promoting media pluralism, transparency and independence
Enhancing quality journalism
