cultural and linguistic diversity of society in all programming for all audiences, and
not only by producing specialized programmes for minorities.
To achieve the effective involvement of all members of society, including organized
groups, requires that both State structures and societal groups respect the principles
of good governance, for instance by selecting their representatives democratically
and pluralistically.
Mutual accommodation and active engagement are more effectively achieved
through inclusive decision-making processes that enable all who want to be heard
to participate directly or through legitimately designated representatives. These
processes should also provide clear procedural channels for participation and
effective remedies against unjust or arbitrary exclusion.
