Welcome
The AFP Foundation exists in the belief that free, independent and responsible media can help people make informed decisions about their lives and thus help reduce poverty, promote development and defend human rights. The Foundation will seek, through the training it provides, to raise journalists' professional standards in accordance with its code of conduct, and to promote press freedom.
The philosophy underlying our work is that those who benefit from training should be able to pass on what they have learned to their colleagues and to younger generations. We see it as part of our mission to teach those who may become tomorrow's teachers.
