OSCE Office in Baku: "Azerbaijani public broadcaster has achieved impressive results"

The assessment aimed to establish a clear picture of the PTV's current operation and to define its immediate development needs. BBC team of two international and one local consultant interviewed key staff and met local media experts to discuss the broadcaster’s editorial policy, the role of the Broadcasting Council, programming, technical infrastructure and training programme.

"Established almost a year ago, Azerbaijani public broadcaster has achieved impressive results, but there is still a long way to go," said Robin Seaword, Deputy Head of the OSCE Office in Baku.

"We hope that the outcomes of this project will help PTV to advance to a new level in its development and this to become a highly professional public broadcasting service."

Detailed report on the assessment findings will be published by the end of September, APA reports.
