PROJECT PREPARED BY Conseil Media DECISION OF THE BUREAU: 5 B. PRESENTATION 1. PROJECT JUSTIFICATION: Freedom of the press in Benin is attested by a multiplicity of press organizations. It is protected by the Constitution, guaranteed by the High Authority for Audiovisual and and Communication Matters (HAAC), and regulated by Law 60-12 of 1960 for matters regarding the printed press, and by the 1997 Law on the liberalization of the audiovisual landscape for private radio and television stations. The project for the strengthening of the capacities of the “GBOMANDO INFO” daily newspaper concerns the printed press. It is intended to stimulate the political and social life of the nation. Its vocation is national and even regional. It receives subscriptions from some Western countries. It currently faces difficulties as regards IT equipment and updating the skills of its personnel because of a lack of appropriate IT equipment, and there is a need for its editorial team (journalists, graphic artists) to receive training. In order to alleviate this problem, it is important to have appropriate high-performance IT equipment available. In the medium to long term, the newspaper should be operating its own printing works, which would permit it to reduce publication costs and improve technical and commercial productivity. The newspaper is currently in a critical position, with practically no options left. Its equipment is outdated and in poor condition, which is why the acquisition of new computing equipment is now indispensable. 2. DESCRIPTION OF THE TARGET GROUPS Personnel of the “GBOMANDO INFO” newspaper, comprising young men and women. 3. DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVE To provide the “GBOMANDO INFO” press organization with high performance tools, together with effective and competitive human resources in order to improve productivity. 4. IMMEDIATE OBJECTIVE To upgrade the newspaper's equipment and to improve the training of personnel. 5. EXPECTED OUTPUTS • Acquisition of modern, high performing multimedia IT equipment; • Retraining of editorial staff (3 journalists and 2 graphic artists for three months, in printed media writing techniques). 6. ACTIVITIES • Purchase and installation of equipment including office automation equipment; • Course at the Institut de Communication Audiovisuelle et de Réalisation Documentaire (I.C.A.R.D); • Training of journalists and graphic artists is organized in Benin by the Institut de Communication Audiovisuelle et de Réalisation Documentaire (I.C.A.R.D.) at Cotonou. 6 7.
