Promoting democracy and freedom of expression

Thomson Foundation led discussions about how newspapers, TV and radio can identify and report the truth in fair and balanced ways when covering elections. This took place at the international conference on Democracy and Freedom of Expression held in November 2019 in Lilongwe, the capital of Malawi. Journalists and experts from Zambia, Tanzania, Mozambique, Namibia and Lesotho joined their Malawian counterparts to forge plans to strengthen the media in their countries.
