National News Media, National Ethnic Press Council align

NEPMCC-logoTORONTO– The National NewsMedia Council of Canada is excited to announce a new alliance with the National Ethnic Press and Media Council of Canada

This agreement will amplify the reach of both organizations on issues of shared concern, such as press freedom, multicultural representation in the media, news literacy, and journalism ethics.

“This landmark agreement provides the foundation for a more productive intercultural dialogue in Canadian media,” says John Fraser, President and CEO of the NNC.  “It recognizes the power journalism has to influence and effect significant social development.”

As part of the agreement, the NNC and the NEPC have agreed to act as ‘steering committees’ to help each other inform and resolve editorial complaints raised against members when issues of race or ethnicity are of central focus. In addition, the two organizations have agreed to collaborate on public outreach and research projects to act as a bridge between mainstream and multicultural media in Canada.

“This is the beginning of a new era for our organization and our members,” says Thomas Saras, President and CEO of the National Ethnic Press and Media Council of Canada. “Working with our brothers and sisters at the NNC and in the mainstream press will be extremely valuable in helping shed light on the ever-changing experiences of ethnic Canadians.”
