g support to preserve, protect, and promote public interest media and information integrity. Official development assistance (ODA) can be essential to address the major challenges facing the global information environment. The principles presented here may guide development co-operation providers’ endeavours to respond to the challenges laid out in the preamble. The principles are supported by a non-exhaustive, indicative list of practical, concrete ways to operationalise each principle. The first principle on ‘do no harm to public interest media’, is intended as a minimum standard which all development co-operation providers are expected to respect. The other principles are more ambitious, seeking to function as a guide and an inspiration to development co-operation providers to increase the relevance and effectiveness of their support.

2. Increase financial and other forms of support to public interest media and the information environment, in order to strengthen democratic resilience [...]
3. Take a whole of system perspective on supporting the media and information environment to make support more relevant, effective and sustainable.

la pertinence et l’efficacité de leur soutien existant dans le but de préserver, protéger et promouvoir les médias d’intérêt public et l’intégrité de l’information. L’APD peut être déterminante pour relever les grands défis auxquels est confronté l’espace de l’information mondial. Les principes présentés ici peuvent aider les fournisseurs de coopération pour le développement à trouver des solutions aux difficultés exposées dans l’introduction. Chaque principe s’accompagne d’une liste indicative non exhaustive de modalités de mise en oeuvre pratiques et concrètes.
Le premier principe, qui consiste à ne pas porter préjudice aux médias d’intérêt public, est considéré comme un minimum que tous les fournisseurs de coopération pour le développement sont censés respecter. Les autres principes, plus ambitieux, ont vocation à servir de guide et d’inspiration aux fournisseurs précités en vue d’accroître la pertinence et l’efficacité de leur soutien.
1. Veiller à ce que l’aide ne porte pas préjudice aux médias d’intérêt public. [...]

3. Adopter une perspective systémique globale du soutien aux médias et à l’espace de l’information afin que celui-ci soit plus pertinent, plus efficace et plus durable. Considérer les médias et l’espace de l’information comme un secteur du développement à proprement parler, un élément essentiel des efforts visant à promouvoir et protéger la démocratie, les droits humains, l’égalité des genres et le développement, ainsi qu’un secteur qui peut aider à la mise en oeuvre d’autres objectifs de développement [...]
4.

Ces derniers sont obligés de conformer la conception qu’ils ont de leur métier, basée sur la liberté d’informer, aux exigences juridiques et à des prescrits appelant à leur responsabilité. Les médias doivent ainsi difficilement s’arranger pour pratiquer leur métier : en jouissant de toute leur liberté et en faisant en même temps l’effort de respecter les lois et les règlements, afin de ne pas tomber dans les abus et les dérapages, qui les pousseraient à enfreindre les valeurs éthiques et déontologiques de leur métier."

ance on the manufacture and perpetration of attacks, as well as guides on combat drills, fitness and non-violent activism such as sticker campaigning. 2. Ideological material which is designed to specifically further a violent extremist or terrorist world view. This includes key texts and lectures which provide the theoretical underpinning for a terrorist or violent extremist cause, and which provide explanation around why the world is a certain way. 3. Inspirational material designed to reinforce a violent extremist or terrorist mind-set. This includes a wide range of content which is designed to elicit a reaction or response in the radicalised mind. This includes material intended to provoke hatred towards a particular group of people or promote pride and support for a particular cause. Notably, this category of content is the least well-defined in the existing literature." (Page 7)
