| The Role of the Media in Peace Processes |
 نسخة للطبع |
• Recognition by media organisations of the need for voluntary self-regulation and maintenance of professional standards, codes of ethics and conduct.
Sri Lanka is at present undergoing significant changes in polity and society. To examine the dynamics of this change requires a sensitivity to the historical moment, a commitment to reporting the truth, and an imagination that refuses to be bogged down in the problems of the present. The multitude of issues that come in the wake of the CFA, the incidents in the East, and are part of peace talks in the near future, are part of the greater process of conflict transformation which requires the media to not just report, but to go beyond the facts to critically and creatively explore avenues for conflict transformation. Conflict sells – but so should peace, and it is up to the media to ensure this.
