A robust and independent broadcast media is an essential component of any democracy, and is critical to the development of a strong civil society.  USAID promotes media development in Afghanistan by building and supporting the capacity of local, state, and independent broadcast media to operate across the nation.  The project provides technical support, equipment upgrades, hands-on training in balanced and accurate reporting, the development of an Afghan media policy and regulatory framework, and future business development training as part of the network's sustainability package.
