Every day, journalists face untold threats: violence, harassment, disinformation, abusive lawsuits.

The Media Freedom Act & Anti-SLAPP Directive have brought change. But more needs to be done.

Laws must be implemented. Journalists must be protected. Democracy must be safeguarded.

Today, on World Press Freedom Day, we honour the women and men who dedicate their lives to the truth.

They work tirelessly to keep us well-informed.

They hold power to account.

They speak up. They challenge the status quo.

And sometimes they pay the ultimate price for it.
