As the 31st Anniversary of the World Press Freedom Day approaches, we recognize the sacrifices of those who ensure that we have new information in our daily newspapers.
We'll continue to advocate for press freedom, & ensuring free information flow for democracy & human rights.

MDI hosted two radio personalities, Anna Mukasa and Deng Forbez, from Power FM 96.9, as guest lecturers. Forbez, a journalist and cartoonist, and Mukasa, a radio personality, provided students with valuable radio knowledge.

Imagine the Ivory Coast government plans to use an 'Electronic communications bill' to criminalize journalism by allowing the transmission of arbitrary messages that could be used against journalists.
This is just unbelievable!

Phones have become an essential part of multimedia journalism. They provide journalists with flexibility, accessibility, & tools needed to cover stories effectively & reach wider audiences.
Multimedia cannot be overstated. It will surely shape the media industry in years to come.

Final day 🥰

'He is risen, He is risen indeed! Celebrate the miraculous resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ this Easter Sunday.
May His love, grace, and mercy shine bright in your life and bring you peace, happiness, and hope'
Happy Easter everyone! 🐣🐥💐🎉
