The Southern African Media Diversity Journal: Issue 6

Gender, Diversity, Elections and the Media

This issue of the Gender and Media Diversity Journal looks at the diverse perspectives of the media landscape in Southern Africa, at a time when five of the region’s countries are holding elections namely South Africa, Malawi, Namibia, Mozambique and Mauritius which is holding local government elections. Added to this, there is the signing of the Protocol on Gender Development by the majority of the Southern African development Community (SADC). The issue looks at what the implications of this protocol are and is enriched by views from the rest of Africa and other regions of the world which aims to stimulate debate on media diversity broadly, and the gender dimensions of this specifically.
