Zimbabwe's Minister of Information, Publicity, and Broadcasting Services, Dr Jenfan Muswere, wants to improve the government's relationship with journalists and media. He plans to do this by holding meetings called "Minister Meets Media" in all 10 provinces of the country.

Dr Muswere met with journalists at a meeting in Harare. He said these provincial media talks will allow journalists to speak directly with government officials.

He knows that social media has made things more complex for the media. Social media can be good, but it can also cause problems. Some things on social media can be toxic. But Dr Muswere thinks professional journalists are different from citizen journalists on social media.

The government has made a law called the Freedom of Information Act, which should help journalists get information more easily. There is also a new media policy and a group to ensure journalists are treated well at work.

Dr Muswere wants the government and the media to work together as friends. He does not want them to be against each other anymore. The government wants to bring the country together.

The "Minister Meets Media" meetings should help the government and media communicate better. They should also make the government more open and honest with the media all over the country.

The government wants to continue discussing media freedom, challenges from the Internet, and the future of journalism. Talking with media professionals is very important to the government.
