Safety of journalists

Safety is a basic need for independent media. Journalists can only do their work free from violence, free from censorship and free from obstruction.

Equity and inclusion

Journalists function as change agents and contribute to a diverse and professional media landscape.

Journalism and accountability

The media fostering accountability is about the purpose of good journalism: building a society in which the powerful are accountable to the public.

Media viability

For a well functioning, independent media landscape, it is extremely important to give support to media viability.

Media and conflict

We support radio stations, journalists and other media that have to report in conflict areas, so they can continue to provide valuable information.

Enabling environment

Free Press Unlimited aims to influence state and political actors through joint advocacy, to create an enabling environment for independent media.

“I get an average of 90 hate messages per hour, and have been detained by my government. But when they detain me, they unshackle me, because I am fighting for my rights. What we do as journalists is important, we can’t stop holding power to account."

Maria Ressa, journalist and Nobel Peace Prize laureate
