1.7 Civil society in general and media lobby groups actively 		
advance the cause of media freedom.
ANALYSIS:
There are presently two organisations of journalists, both of them
not very effective. They are the Association des Journalistes Mauriciens (AJM) and the Association des Gens de Presse (AGP).
The AJM has not been working properly for a number of months now,
suffering from internal problems between individuals.
Both associations have not been seen to be pro-active.
