New Guide: implementing UN commitments to advance journalists’ safety

Current Status: active

ARTICLE 19 today launched a new guide to UN standards on the safety of journalists, setting out the commitments States have made to prevent, protect against, and prosecute attacks in UN Human Rights Council (HRC) resolution 33/2. The guide not only details the concrete actions States must take to ensure the safety of journalists, but sets out how UN human rights mechanisms should be used by civil society to hold States to account against these commitments.

The full guide can be viewed using the following link : https://www.article19.org/data/files/medialibrary/38883/Safety-of-Journalists-guide.pdf
