Médias & Bonne Gouvernance en Afrique: Concept et Cas Pratiques

This book, published in French by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 2010, presents an overview of case studies on media and good governance. The book contains articles by intellectuals and journalists from eight African countries: Benin, Burundi, Cameroon, Côte d'Ivoire, Gabon, Mali, Senegal, and Togo.
According to the publication’s introduction, freedom of expression constitutes an essential component of peace and democracy. Not only does media provide a space for free expression, it also contributes to the formulation of public opinion related to political, economic, social, and cultural issues at all levels of society. Through its Communication and Information and Priority Africa programmes, UNESCO works to promote freedom of expression, media pluralism, and the right to information. This book was produced to support those objectives.
