systemic problems
• Violence and repression still present
• Violence against independent media and limited space for critical dissent
• Legacy of 25+ years of war: Communal distrust, no reconciliation, no political settlement, continued militarisation, national security mindset, repressive government, on-going self-censorship, very weak rule of law, unconstitutional governance
• New conflicts: Rapid increase in Islamophobia
systemic problems
• Mainstream media driven by and anchored to commercial interests. Also largely unprofessional and partisan
• Almost complete lack of innovation. Web, social and new media merely supports old thinking and old media models
• Risk averse context, conformity over doing and looking at things differently
• Deeply sexist context
