The Ministry of Communication, Digital Technology, and Innovations has announced plans to establish a stakeholder committee tasked with developing a comprehensive roadmap for broadcasting reforms in Ghana. The committee, set to be inaugurated by next week, will focus on enhancing media quality, improving regulatory coherence, and strengthening public trust in the country's broadcasting sector.
The decision was revealed by Hon. Samuel Nartey George, Minister of Communication, Digital Technology, and Innovations, during a meeting with a delegation from the Africa Media Bureau, organizers of the Broadcast at the Crossroads Forum. The bureau presented the Minister with a detailed report summarizing key findings and policy recommendations from the forum, which addressed challenges facing the media and broadcasting ecosystem in Ghana.
The upcoming committee will collaborate closely with key regulatory institutions, including the National Media Commission NMC and the National Communications Authority NCA. Its mandate will include evaluating existing frameworks and developing strategies to promote professionalism, credibility, and ethical standards within the broadcasting industry.
