Objectives

The meeting will reinvigorate support for independent media and the information environment across the wider European region by uniting journalists and media support actors with donors and policymakers in brainstorming strategies for implementing the recently adopted OECD Development Cooperation Principles for Relevant and Effective Support to Media and the Information Environment.

The Principles are the successful culmination of more than two years of consultations and advocacy led by GFMD and the Centre for International Media Assistance (CIMA) in collaboration with bilateral donor agencies (including Sweden, Switzerland, France, the United Kingdom, and the United States), intergovernmental institutions (including the Media Freedom Coalition, through its Media Development Working Group and UNESCO’s IPDC), implementing organisations, civil society representatives, and media development experts.

If you have academic research, reports, and/or evaluation papers documenting what works and what does not work in media development in the region, please add them to the second sheet of this mapping spreadsheet or send them to ivbjelic@gfmd.info. We will include these in our literature review. The spreadsheet access is closed, with access granted upon request.

If you are interested in attending the Sarajevo regional meeting, please subscribe to our Europe mailing list by sending an email to EUROPE+subscribe@gfmd.groups.io, and keep an eye out for updates, announcements, and logistical details. We will also be using the list to solicit your feedback and suggestions for the programme and the agenda.
