SECTOR 4 4.10 Journalists and other media practitioners are organised in trade unions and/or professional associations. Analysis The media professional associations and interest groups (see sector 1.11) have largely been focused when it comes to training needs and opportunities in the industry. These have also been active in advocacy for media interests. But it should also be noted that some have emerged as “Brief case” associations limited to selfinterests. The Kenya Union of Journalists (KUJ) is not well organized. It has been steeped in leadership wrangles, thus rendering it weak and ineffective.
