Thursday, August 25, 2016

This video 'the media as partner in advancing accountability in the education sector' was recorded during the keynote presentation delivered by the Policy Advisor of Civil Society Action Coalition on Education for All (CSACEFA), Mr. Wale Samuel, at the JDP award presentation organised by DevComs Network.

Journalism Development Programme (JDP) is a development project which seeks to build broad based understanding and action towards the acceptance and support for initiatives on reform in the education sector in Nigeria.

The eight winners (education reporters) have shown a high degree of commitment, and outstanding contributions to national development through their various reports on the state of the Nigerian Education Sector. Their reports were selected out of the pool of media reports (from print, radio and television) submitted by the 18 nominated journalists at the final stage, based on richness of content, accuracy, relevance and logical sequence.
