ACME Talks with Daniel Kalinaki - Media regulation and accreditation of journalists ahead of Uganda's general election

ACME's Executive Eirector, Peter Mwesige and Daniel Kalinaki, General Manager of Editorial at Nation Media Group Uganda and interim chair of the Editors' Guild, discuss the Guild's recent court application to halt the mandatory accreditation of journalists covering the 2021 general election. The case filed with the Centre for Public Interest Law calls the accreditation directive “illegal, irregular and irrational”.

ACME has conducted two studies on the media's coverage of the election. Read the combined October and November 2020 reports here.
