ACME Talks

Conversations about journalism, media and society in Uganda from the African Centre for Media Excellence.

In March this year, a new initiative called the Uganda Media Sector Working Group was launched. It seeks to serve as a common platform through which the media industry, government, media development organisations and other interested parties can address the most pressing issues of the day, such as regulation, law reform, professionalism and media viability.

In this episode of ACME Talks, Dr George Lugalambi, a founder member of the Uganda Media Sector Working Group and Dr Peter Mwesige, ACME’s executive director, discuss the progress and opportunities of this new initiative, and debate the future of Uganda’s media industry.
