  • Joint declarations of the representatives of intergovernmental bodies to protect free media and expression
    This book contains the work of many people who are bound together by a common characteristic: a passion and unflinching commitment to free media and free expression. It is a chronicle of 14 years of expression of that commitment: the annual joint declarations of four leaders, the OSCE Representative on Freedom of the Media, the UN Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Opinion and Expression, the OAS Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Expression, and ACHPR Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Expression and Access to Information. These media-freedom advocates have mandates from intergovernmental bodies across the globe to protect and promote free media and expression.
