About this capture
What we do
Media and communication can be an immense and powerful instrument for change and empowerment in society. We argue that media is a critical element of strategies designed to alleviate poverty.
  • It enables people to access information on issues that shape their lives, without which they cannot make choices
  • It enables people and communities to understand, debate and reach decisions on the issues that confront them
