Development Co-operation Principles for Relevant and Effective Support to Media and the Information Environment
Key Guidance

Paris: OECD (2024), 15 pp.

"The below principles seek to reinvigorate international support to media and the information environment. They aspire to encourage current development co-operation providers to increase levels of financial and other forms of assistance and to improve the relevance and effectiveness of their existin ... g support to preserve, protect, and promote public interest media and information integrity. Official development assistance (ODA) can be essential to address the major challenges facing the global information environment. The principles presented here may guide development co-operation providers’ endeavours to respond to the challenges laid out in the preamble. The principles are supported by a non-exhaustive, indicative list of practical, concrete ways to operationalise each principle. The first principle on ‘do no harm to public interest media’, is intended as a minimum standard which all development co-operation providers are expected to respect. The other principles are more ambitious, seeking to function as a guide and an inspiration to development co-operation providers to increase the relevance and effectiveness of their support. 1. Ensure that assistance does no harm to public interest media [...] 2. Increase financial and other forms of support to public interest media and the information environment, in order to strengthen democratic resilience [...] 3. Take a whole of system perspective on supporting the media and information environment to make support more relevant, effective and sustainable. Consider the media and information environment as a development sector in itself, a critical part of efforts to promote and protect democracy, human rights, gender equality and development as well as a sector which can support implementation of other development goals [...] 4. Strengthen local leadership and ownership, empowering media partners as well as other actors in the information environment such as civil society organisations and online content creators to meaningfully participate in policies and programmes [...] 5. Improve co-ordination of support to the media and information environment, both among donor agencies and between development and diplomatic efforts to support media freedom, especially in contexts of crisis [...] 6. Invest in knowledge, research, and learning [...]" (Page 8-11) more

Principes pour un soutien pertinent et efficace aux médias et à l’espace de l’information dans le cadre de la coopération pour le développement
Key Guidance

Paris: OCDE (2024), 15 pp.

"Les principes ci-après ont pour but de redynamiser le soutien international aux médias et à l’espace de l’information. Ils visent à encourager les fournisseurs de coopération pour le développement actuels à accroître leurs niveaux d’assistance (notamment financière) et à améliorer ... la pertinence et l’efficacité de leur soutien existant dans le but de préserver, protéger et promouvoir les médias d’intérêt public et l’intégrité de l’information. L’APD peut être déterminante pour relever les grands défis auxquels est confronté l’espace de l’information mondial. Les principes présentés ici peuvent aider les fournisseurs de coopération pour le développement à trouver des solutions aux difficultés exposées dans l’introduction. Chaque principe s’accompagne d’une liste indicative non exhaustive de modalités de mise en oeuvre pratiques et concrètes. Le premier principe, qui consiste à ne pas porter préjudice aux médias d’intérêt public, est considéré comme un minimum que tous les fournisseurs de coopération pour le développement sont censés respecter. Les autres principes, plus ambitieux, ont vocation à servir de guide et d’inspiration aux fournisseurs précités en vue d’accroître la pertinence et l’efficacité de leur soutien. 1. Veiller à ce que l’aide ne porte pas préjudice aux médias d’intérêt public. [...] 2. Accroître le soutien, notamment financier, en faveur des médias d’intérêt public et de l’espace de l’information afin de renforcer la résilience démocratique [...] 3. Adopter une perspective systémique globale du soutien aux médias et à l’espace de l’information afin que celui-ci soit plus pertinent, plus efficace et plus durable. Considérer les médias et l’espace de l’information comme un secteur du développement à proprement parler, un élément essentiel des efforts visant à promouvoir et protéger la démocratie, les droits humains, l’égalité des genres et le développement, ainsi qu’un secteur qui peut aider à la mise en oeuvre d’autres objectifs de développement [...] 4. Renforcer le leadership et l’appropriation au niveau local, en donnant aux partenaires des médias ainsi qu’aux autres acteurs de l’espace de l’information (comme les organisations de la société civile et les créateurs de contenus en ligne) les moyens de participer de manière constructive aux politiques et aux programmes [...] 5. Améliorer la coordination du soutien aux médias et à l’espace de l’information, à la fois entre les organismes donneurs et entre les initiatives de développement et les efforts diplomatiques visant à promouvoir la liberté des médias, en particulier dans les contextes de crises [...] 6. Investir dans la connaissance, la recherche et l’apprentissage." (Page 8-11) more
