Internews in Kyrgyzstan is implementing the Media Independence Initiative (Media-K) project, which is aimed at developing independent media in the country.
Internews monitors the media landscape and helps improve citizens’ access to diverse and balanced information to enable them to make informed decisions reflecting the public interest.
Selected key partners receive institutional support that contributes to the independence and financial sustainability of the media in the Kyrgyz Republic.
Besides that, Internews supports editors’ offices and journalists in creating high-quality and socially relevant content.
The needed support is being provided through the Media Policy Institute to independent media organizations whose journalists are under prosecution.
