Our objectives are clear
MRCG was established to coordinate the four priorities obtained from a capacity needs study of the media sector undertaken in 2013 which formed the basis of the Sierra Leone Media development strategy. The priorities are as follows:
1. Improved ethics of the media through regulatory or self-regulatory mechanisms.
2. Promoting transparent and independent allocation of licenses, handling of complaints and stimulating an enabling regulatory and political environment for professional and pluralistic media.
3. Sustainable and independent public service broadcasting serving all the people of the country.
4. Strengthened professionalism and sustainability of organizations and improved people’s participation in media development and content.
The objectives of the Sierra Leone Media development strategy are the derivatives of these four priorities.
