She added that the focus on female journalists for this project was in line with decisions made by the Ministers in charge of Communication and Information and Communication Technology to recognise contributions of journalists who give attention to development issues towards the achievement of Agenda 2063 and welcomed the continued support by GIZ to the African Union’s programmes to promote Agenda 2063 and African women in media.
