MONROVIA – The Liberia Media Center (LMC) with support from the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) through the Multi-Stakeholders Forest Governance Project (MFGAP) has concluded a one-day editors’ forum to build a leading network of editors from the print and electronic news organizations throughout Liberia. The editors’ forum, which was held last Friday, September 18, 2020, was held at the Corina Hotel in Monrovia and was attended by several editors from both the print and electronic media. Sagie F. Kamara, Sr.; and the Forestry Development Agency (FDA) Managing Director C. Mike Doyen, said the forest sector of Liberia needs attention in the reportage of the media. He implores journalists to take advantage of the Freedom of Information Act to enhance their reportage of forest governance and other development stories. “We have taken significant steps towards forest governance and have made enormous progress in the sector, but there are still challenges,” Mr. Doyen concluded.
