The Media Sustainability Index

The Media Sustainability Index (MSI) evaluates how well media systems in different countries support a free, independent, and sustainable press. It considers factors such as media freedom, legal environment, economic viability, access to information, and the quality of journalism. By assessing these areas, the MSI helps identify strengths and weaknesses in a country's media landscape, guiding efforts to improve press independence and resilience. This, in turn, promotes informed citizenship and supports democratic development.
