The MCI will explore the state of media in Pakistan against 20 indicators reflecting six pillars; 1) professional competence, 2) ethics, 3) accuracy, 4) balance, 5) fairness and 6) timeliness.

Codes of Ethics framed by Pakistani media groups have also being included such as Jang group’s Geo Asool, Dunya’s code of ethics, Express group’s journalism code of conduct and Dawn Group’s principles and code of conduct. The MCI will assess the media discourse and credibility of current affair content in the country. This extensive study entails thirty-five current affair programs of the mainstream leading Pakistani news channels.

Mishal Pakistan is the partner institute of the Global Competitiveness and Benchmarking Networks, World Economic Forum. Mishal assists the forum in creating the soft-data on Pakistan, identifying Pakistan’s competitiveness challenges. Mishal has also launched Pakistan’s first journalism awards on the framework designed jointly with the Center for International Media Ethics and UNESCO’s Media Development Indicators.
