The media and development : what's the story?
The media's contribution to development occurs simultaneously along five closely intermingled influences: plurality and transparency, behavioral, infrastructure and platform, economic, and trade. The media are at the cutting edge of technological change, where the digitalization of content, Next Generation Networks, falling device and distribution costs, ever-increasing abundance and new business models are overturning the pre-existing order of markets and the media, though broadcasting, particularly radio, remain crucial in developing countries. This offers new development opportunities requiring new policy initiatives, and the realization of this by the development community. In many instances the media has yet to attain its appropriate status on the list of development priorities.

The Media and Development
This paper assesses the impact the media have on the development process. Because the media can be used and delivered in so many ways, there is no single means of analyzing its contributions to development. Thus, the paper presents a range of storylines with the common thread being the media's role in development. The paper also discusses older and newer trends in the relationship between the media and development, and how they might impact developing countries
