ACME Talks with Prof Monica Chibita - Journalists' security, media standards & covering elections

With tensions rising between government authorities and journalists ahead of Uganda's 2021 general election, how should the media respond? ACME's Executive Director, Peter Mwesige, chats with Prof Monica Chibita, Dean of the Faculty of Journalism, Media and Communication at Uganda Christian University about the current state of affairs, the debate on accreditation of journalists, how the media have covered the campaign season, and much more.

Read Peter Mwesige's analysis of government's directive to accredit journalists covering the elections here, and an op-ed by journalism lecturer, Emily Maractho here.
