African Media Leaders Forum
VOD
Description
The theme of this year’s Forum - Shaping Development Conversations in Africa: The Role of Media in the Digital Environment – was the outcome of that reflective and consultative effort.
The theme eloquently speaks to one of AMI’s deepest concerns, which is that media in Africa do not contribute effectively to the continent’s development agenda.
