He also explained some of the provisions in the Creative Arts Industry Act which is meant to regulate activities of Ghana\u2019s creative arts space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He further explained the case between Mark Darlington Osae and the Food and Drugs Authority regarding the ban on celebrities from plugging alcoholic beverages. Kwadwo Ofori Dankwah Esq. gave more insight into the ruling as he analysed its implications.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Benjamin Oduro Arhin Jnr. (Bnoskka), a lecturer at the University of Education, Winneba, who has specialty in copyright matters, highlighted the various aspects of intellectual property and what constitutes copyright infringement. Narrowing it down to media practice (particularly radio presentation), Bnoskka also underscored the implications of doing Live Presenter Mentions (LPMs) over people\u2019s music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He therefore advised the participants against the use of people\u2019s intellectual property in their line of duty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Media Capacity Enhancement Programme is aimed at strengthening the skills and knowledge of journalists in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The training for the arts journalists comes after the third cohort trained about 100 journalists across the country from September 10 to 13, 2024.<\/p>\n\n                <p><strong>DISCLAIMER: <\/strong>The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.<\/p>      \n               \n <!-- Post Tags -->\n                \n\n                        \n\n    \n                                 \n                                             \n                    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ministry of Information, as part of its Media Capacity Enhancement Programme, organised a workshop for arts and culture journalists in Accra on Friday, October 11, 2024.
