How Nigerian Media Reports Biodiversity and Environmental Issues

This media monitoring report assesses how selected Nigerian media outlets report on biodiversity-related issues, with a focus on editorial depth, geographic distribution, thematic emphasis, and authorship patterns. The goal is to understand not just how often biodiversity is reported, but how it is framed, who tells the story, and whose biodiversity challenges receive visibility.

Specifically, the report analyses the types of biodiversity stories published across media platforms, the dominant framing of biodiversity reporting, the themes and topics that receive the most attention, and the geographic spread of coverage, highlighting biodiversity hotspots that are most and least reported.

Using a media monitoring and content analysis approach, the study systematically reviews biodiversity-related reports to identify patterns, gaps, and editorial priorities across the selected outlets.
