In Senegal, the Presidency has initiated a search for candidates to fill twelve positions within the National Media Regulatory Council (CNRM). Under the administration of President Bassirou Diomaye Faye, applicants must hold a minimum of a Master’s degree to ensure professional standards across sectors such as audiovisual communication, media law, and information technologies. The new council intends to include representatives from various societal groups, including youth and disability organizations.
