The Stand and Program Concept of our Association
‘Authoritarianism and Wars are Becoming Widespread, Media Freedom is Declining’
In recent years, great tension has begun between democracy and autocracy around the world, and this tension has turned into wars. War and security concerns, on the other hand, cause media freedom to decline even in democracies. We want to draw attention to this fundamental issue for media freedom and discuss it internationally. We have a proven tool prepared for this purpose: Journalist Post Magazine.
