Supported by funding from the Dutch Foreign Ministry through the Embassy of the Kingdom of Netherlands in Accra, Ghana, this initiative aims to equip Liberian journalists with the necessary skills to leverage the Freedom of Information (FOI) law effectively. As conduits of information, the media fulfils an important function in ensuring that information is widely distributed. Tuesday’s training agenda is meticulously designed to arm these journalists with indispensable tools and knowledge, enabling them to navigate the intricate landscape of the FOI law. By leveraging the FOI law, journalists are poised to play a pivotal role in holding authorities accountable and fostering greater openness in the administration of public resources at the local level. By harnessing the power of the FOI law, journalists can act as catalysts for change, fostering a society where openness and accountability prevail.
