More about the contribution
International Media Support (IMS), has submitted a request for financial support amounting to 76 100 000 SEK to Sida for its Syria media development programme for the period Januari 2021 to December 2023. The support is a continuation of a previous support from Sida to IMS Syria programme. Despite a very difficult context, IMS programme has acheved important results and Sida assesses that the support continues to be relevant. The programme aims to ensure that Syrians inside and outside Syria get access to reliable and diverse information of public interest, increased accountability and increased security for journalists. The programme focuses on developing syrian media and contribute to a diverse media content fulfilling professional and ethical norms. Due to the dangerous context inside Syria for journalists, IMS will manily support exil media cooperating with journalists inside Syria. A Syria team at IMS headquarter in Copenhagen and a senior media specialist in Berlin (where several of the exil journalists and media outlets are based) will coordinate and monitor the programme. Sida is the main donor to the programme. Norway also provides a small support.
