BBC Media Action’s New Research and Insight Blog

How people use, access and communicate information around the world has profound implications for development, diplomatic and foreign policy.

BBC Media Action’s new Research and Insight blog offers a space for discussion, deliberation, and interrogation of its policy analysis, research findings, and insight pertaining to the role of the media in its core priority areas of governance and rights, health, and resilience and humanitarian response.

Designed for development policy makers and researchers who might not be specialists in media and communications, the blog attempts to foster a dialogue between the media development sector and the broader development community in order to better appreciate and integrate research, experiences, and insights from both fields of practice.
