Media and Democracy

Media and democracy are symbiotic and mutually reinforcing. A free media drives public participation and strengthens democracy and democracy ensures that the media can fulfil its watchdog role without fear of persecution and retaliation. Thus, Media Action Nepal works with institutions of democracy to empower the media to work to its fullest potential within the democratic framework. We focus on creating awareness among the stakeholders about the role and importance of media to maintain a vibrant democracy in Nepal.
