Media Support consists of two organisations - the communications for development consultancy Media Support Solutions and the NGO Media Support Partnership, which enjoys charitable status and is registered in Scotland. Both organisations work to harness the power of communications to benefit the information-poor in the world. Media support brings together a worldwide group of specialists who have pioneered the use of mass media in humanitarian emergencies and development programmes over the past 10 years. Much of its work focuses on radio training and programming, but it also includes television, print, the Internet and community theatre. Drawing on its network of specialists, Media Support advises organisations on their communications strategy, manages field projects and disseminates good practice.
