BiA Independent Communication Network  

Definición

  • Initiated in 1997 by three nongovernmental organizations—Interpress Service Communication Foundation, the Union of Chambers of Turkish Engineers and Architects, and the Turkish Physicians Association—alongside a group of local media professionals and media academics, Bagimsiz Iletiçim Ağ1 (BiA; the Independent Communication Network) was launched in January 2001 with an EU grant. At its founding conference in Izmir, BiA adopted as its major aim to create an outlet for “politically and ethically responsible journalism” and to empower the local media as the “voice of the voiceless” in a country where community and/or ethnic, cultural minority, noncommercial electronic media are restricted by law.
