During this Wednesday’s session, the head of State opened a new modality of interaction, where he responded openly to the concerns raised by journalists. According to Reyna, these sessions will be institutionalized as a regular practice to strengthen accountability and address issues of greatest national interest.
Transparency in management: The new Weekly Agenda
The official also offered details on the recently implemented Weekly Agenda, a strategy that seeks to show the country the operational dynamics of the Government. This format includes the broadcast of meetings of the various work cabinets, allowing citizens to observe closely how solutions to the challenges facing the nation are managed.
Among the key aspects of this initiative, the following points stand out:
- Active participation of invited communicators and journalists in cabinet meetings.
- Spaces designated for asking questions and contributing points of view on the topics discussed.
- Full visibility into decision-making within government institutions.
The ruler’s willingness to maintain constant contact with the media constitutes a fundamental guarantee to continue strengthening freedom of the press and democracy in the Dominican Republic.
