KEG member Phyllis Nyambura urges editors to ask hard questions and bring out the human interest angle in ag-biotech stories. "We need to help the public understand and internalise the message".

Macharia Gaitho: You need to understand how the media works. If you communicate better and make your case, you will be listened to. Do not descend to shooting the messenger.
#BiotechreportingKe
The problem with scientist is that they do not know how to communicate. They are too technical. Before you accuse the media of misinformation be sure you are able to give information that is simple and easy to understand ~Macharia Gaitho
