Traditional media policy in Italy, as elsewhere in Europe, has often been a reaction to crises – dwindling press freedom, security threats in the digital sphere, or the dangers facing journalists. While necessary, Mediadelcom research highlights the need for a proactive approach to complement these reactive measures.

What does proactive media governance look like?

• Robust Monitoring: Italy needs a system to identify emerging media-related risks and assess the overall health of the country’s communication culture.
• Proactive Policymaking: Insights from this monitoring system should directly inform policy designed to strengthen media resilience before crises emerge.

This shift towards proactive media governance is essential for safeguarding a healthy media environment in Italy.
