The Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) President, Albert Kwabena Dwumfour, has praised the success of last year’s African Media Convention (AMC) held in Accra, describing it as “the best since the inception of the AMC.” The convention’s impact on media discourse across Africa has been significant, and Dwumfour is optimistic that the upcoming edition in Marrakech, Morocco, will build on this success.
The fourth AMC, scheduled to take place from May 29 to 31, 2025, will bring together media practitioners, policymakers, academics, and stakeholders from across the continent to discuss pressing issues shaping Africa’s media landscape. The event will provide a platform for collaboration, innovation, and idea generation, ultimately strengthening the industry and amplifying African voices.
Dwumfour encouraged media institutions to participate actively in international gatherings like the AMC, emphasizing their importance in fostering collaboration and innovation. The AMC has grown into a vital platform for shaping the future of African media, and its continued success will depend on the active participation of media stakeholders.
As the AMC prepares to take center stage in Marrakech, expectations are high for a thought-provoking and innovative discourse that will propel African media forward. With its proven track record of success, the AMC is poised to make a lasting impact on the continent’s media landscape.
