The NGO Infocentre, in partnership with the Media Development Centre, in the period from September 2012 to January 2013, conducted an indepth analysis of the work and operations of the Macedonian Radio and Television (MRT) and its television programming services: MRT1, MRT2 and the Parliamentary Channel.

The main goal of this analysis, titled “MRT – Public Service for the Citizens?”, is to determine whether and to what extent MRT meets the function of a public broadcasting service and, naturally, to promote a public social debate on the role and functioning of the public broadcasting service in the Republic of Macedonia.

The analysis consists of two components: an analysis of the legal and administrative set-up and internal procedures of MRT; and analysis of the programming on MRT1, MRT2 and the Parliamentary Channel. In addition to the detailed analysis of the operations of MRT and its television programming services, this document offers the key findings and recomendations for improved functioning of MRT as an independent and professional public broadcasting service. It also includes a brief overview of the history of MRT.

The analysis is financially supported by USAID and the Foundation Open Society Macedonia (FOSM), under the auspices of USAID’s Civil Society Project.
