Recognising the close relation of the media/press councils with the journalistic community, the action will aim to engage media self-regulatory bodies in boosting the digital empowerment of journalists.
It will also aim to promote the exchange of views between media/press councils and the independent media regulators in view of exploring potential cooperation channels.
