Nigeria: African Media Barometer report on Nigeria, 2011

The African Media Barometer (AMB) is an in-depth and comprehensive description and measurement system for national media environments on the African continent. Unlike other press surveys or media indices the AMB is a self assessment exercise based on home-grown criteria derived from African Protocols and Declarations like the 'Declaration of Principles on Freedom of Expression in Africa' (2002) by the 'African Commission for Human and Peoples’ Rights'. The instrument was jointly developed by fesmedia Africa, the Media Project of the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES) in Africa, and the Media Institute of Southern Africa (MISA) in 2004.
