National Council of Citizen and Community Media
The National Council of Citizen and Community Media is a body appointed to advise the Ministry of Culture on the development of policies, plans and programs in the area of citizen and community media. The Council was created based on the National Artistic Areas Councils, but it has an exclusive regulation. These National Councils were ruled on in the General Law of Culture of 1997, and that of the Citizen Media and Community was regulated in 2005 by the Ministry of Culture. The members of the Council come from the Ministry of Culture, from representatives with a long history in the area of citizen and community media and representatives of the five regional groups of the country.
