EPF is Awarded to Build the Capacity of Georgian Media

In September 2009 EPF received the grant from EU to build the capacity of Georgian Media in Investigative journalism. In November 2009 the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has allocated additional $100,000 to supplement the funding for the program.
The objective of the program is to promote the Georgian media as a watchdog institution by:
• increasing public access to high quality, professional, independent information;
• increasing the quality and amount of investigative journalism in Georgian national and regional media;
• strengthening the function of the Georgian Association of Regional Broadcasters (GARB), and
• protecting journalists’ rights.
