TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL VANUATU (TIV) congratulates the new Executive Members of the Media Association of Vanuatu (MAV) who were elected yesterday at the Vanuatu Broadcasting & Television Corporation headquarter in Port Vila.
TIV has a well-established working relationship with MAV that has grown stronger over the years. The highlights of this partnership are many, but the most significant one was the nation-wide community consultation and the lobbying of the Right To Information (RTI) Bill.
The RTI Bill was unanimously passed by the Parliament of Vanuatu in 2016.
TIV looks forward to continuing this relationship with the new MAV leaders.
