Additionally, it gives a voice to marginalized individuals and enables informed decision-making by providing citizens with the relevant information.

Mr. Asante encouraged investment by the private sector in the media to achieve high-quality outcomes. He urged other private sector organisations to invest in media capacity-building and other media development initiatives. According to him, this investment would help create a future-ready, well-equipped, and authentic media industry aligned with the country’s developmental goals.
