To qualify for this role, you should hold a bachelor's degree in broadcast journalism, digital/media/video production, PR, or marketing from an accredited institution. Relevant professional experience will also be considered.

The Commonwealth comprises
56 independent nations with diverse populations, including developed and developing economies. It includes 33 small states, many of which are island nations.

Commonwealth Charter.

While rooted in the British Empire, the modern Commonwealth is open to
all countries. The most recent additions to the Commonwealth were Gabon and Togo in 2022.
