Zimbabwe Union of Journalists (ZUJ) secretary-general, Mr Perfect Hlongwane has expressed hope that the forthcoming Media and Communications Policy will provide clear direction, legal reforms, and improved working conditions for journalists.

“What we expect is a policy that will give us direction in terms of where we are going as a sector, a policy that speaks to our concerns. This is how the sector will develop,” he said.

Mr Hlongwane also highlighted that journalists expect the new policy to deal with the issue of their welfare.

He said a robust and inclusive policy is critical for progress in the media landscape.
