Global Media Assistance Strategies


Funded by USAID, PCMLP served as primary organizer for a conference on media assistance held in Paris in February 2002. At the conference, members of the media assistance and development community came together to begin a large scale discussion on the effectiveness, purpose, philosophy, and practical basis for global media assistance. Two reports, the World Bank's 2002 World Development Report, "Building Institutions for Markets" and the Enabling Environment for Free and Independent Media, formed the beginning of discussions and led to working group debates on pivotal areas of media assistance, including assistance during conflict, business management development, media law development, and donor coordination.
