New Publication - Framework for the Development of a Sustainable and
Pluralistic Media
Addis Ababa 22 August 2007 - Published in July 2007, the "Framework
for the Development of a Sustainable and Pluralistic Media" is
predicated on the recognition that the Millennium Development Goals
(MDGs) cannot be achieved without sustained political will and
investment, which would among others, require a free and democratic
environment in which the media can play an effective role in
promoting sustainable development, fighting corruption and promoting
good governance. A strong media and communication environment is
critical to a developed and prosperous Africa.
Further, ECA's first edition of the African Governance Report (AGR
I), called for a new large-scale and comprehensive, African
capacity-building initiative to address deficits in key areas,
including the media.
In this regard, ECA conceptualized and undertook a process known as
Strengthening Africa's Media (STREAM) in partnership with leading
players in the media sector in the region between April 2006 and
January 2007. The resulting "Framework for the Development of a
Sustainable and Pluralistic Media" articulates the concerns and
perspectives generated by the stakeholders who participated in the
process. It also identifies priority issues and areas requiring
support, and proposes concrete initiatives and programmes towards a
strengthened media sector.
It recognizes that effective media are a vital ingredient in the
establishment and maintenance of effective, transparent, and
accountable States that promote development, protect human rights,
respect the rule of law, and ensure that people are free to
participate in, and be heard on decisions that affect their lives.
The Framework is a companion document to the larger final report of
the entire STREAM process, which in turn provides comprehensive
details of the context of this unprecedented, stakeholder-led
initiative, the methodology adopted, as well as the findings and
recommendations of the e-consultations and all the subregional
meetings.
