ARTICLE 19

Description

ARTICLE 19 is an international "think–do" organisation that works to advance the freedom of expression movement locally and globally so that all people can realise the power of their voices. The organisation develops research and legal and policy analysis to drive change worldwide, and leads work through nine regional hubs across the globe. Its work is organised around five themes: promoting media independence; increasing access to information; protecting journalists; expanding civic space; and placing human rights at the heart of developing digital spaces. Founded in 1987 and named after Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, it combines research, campaigning, and legal analysis to strengthen the right to free expression and access to information.
