Justice for Journalists
Ending impunity for crimes against journalists is one of the most pressing issues to guarantee freedom of expression and access to information for all citizens. Between 2006 and 2020, over 1,200 journalists were killed for reporting the news and bringing information to the public. According to the UNESCO observatory of killed journalists, in nine out of ten cases, the killers go unpunished. Impunity leads to more killings and is often a symptom of worsening conflict and breaking the law and judicial systems.
