AMDISS was formed in 2003 by editors and owners of the leading media outlets in South Sudan to help address the news and information void in the country and the lack of capacity by local journalists to report on the issues of human rights, good governance, freedom of expression and democracy.
AMDISS is a home to the Media Development Institute (MDI) which has been established already to offer specialized media training for qualifying Journalists and special tailor made short courses to media and communications practitioners who wish to upgrade their skills. The fees are very friendly to cater for specific needs yet top quality instruction guaranteed.
It is also the hub for our advocacy and media research work and the site of lectures, conferences, round tables, panel discussions, seminars and meetings.
