"Local Media Support‘ (LMS) presents a study of current status with regard to support of local media as part of humanitarian or developmental assistance programmes. Based on this, a proposed framework for the assessment of projects and programmes in this field is developed. The report is divided into four chapters: Chapter 1 clarifies key concepts and how the report understands the nature and role of media in society [...] Chapter 2 outlines and discusses the actors and activities now associated with international LMS [...] Chapter 3 provides a framework for structuring or categorising LMS activities. Three partially cornplementary categories are suggested [...] Based on the three objective-based categories proposed in Chapter 3, Chapter 4 develops a detailed framework for the assessment and evaluation of LMS activities."
