OXFAM, EU takes right to information project to north media

Youth and Society (YAS) and Development Communications Trust (DCT) on Friday engaged the media in the northern region in a project aimed at influencing effective implementation and enforcement of regulatory framework that guarantees right to information.
The project is being co-funded by OXFAM and European Union (EU).
Briefing the journalists at Grand Palace Hotel in Mzuzu, Aubrey Chikungwa of Media Institute of Southern Africa (MISA)-Malawi said Access to information was a human right that helps one to enjoy other human rights.
The media orientation revealed that Malawi as a country had a weak score of 4 out of 10 on the Open Government Partnership Index for its access to information environment. The project therefore seeks to redress this situation.
