The Role of the Media in development: NGOs and the media Reflection Forum August 2000 The 3rd NGO Reflection Forum of 2000 was held in August at the MWENGO Secretariat, Harare. The forum brought together a total of 35 NGOs and media practitioners. Main points of discussions included: * What is our understanding of the media? * What is the role of the media in development? * How can NGOs forge a strong relationship between themselves and the media? * What are the obstacles to fostering closer relationships between the NGO sector and the media? * How can NGOs access media resources in the Eastern and southern African region? Two media practitioners presented two perspectives of the media. One aspect dealt with what it is the media want from the NGO and the type of information required by the media; and how to create a relationship with the media and what the responsibilities of each party are.
