Tawana Kupe

The African Union and the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) seem to have ignored the question of continental media policy. Tawana Kupe has a couple of suggestions.

Tawana Kupe of Wits University discusses the groundbreaking benefits of the Declaration of Principles on Freedom of Expression in Africa.

As promised last month, Im back with the African agenda at the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS). And as I noted there, African media still has not caught on to the fact that the summit is nine months away. Its a pity.

Keynote speaker Thabo Mbeki turned the tables on the issues at an indaba of 100 editors from across the African continent. Tawana Kupe was there.
