IBA Launches Media Law and Freedom of Expression Website
The International Bar Association's Media Law Committee and Human Rights Institute today launched a new website for legal professionals that work to defend freedom of expression:
The goal of the site is to create a global community of media lawyers for mutual support and discussion. The website will act as a point of information sharing, capacity building and networking for those involved in media work all over the world. In particular, it will provide details of, and links to, local and global organisations working in the sector.
The website, which was developed in collaboration with Pro Bono Net, is free to join and offers a variety of resources on media law and freedom of expression. The full press release is available here. -M
